This is simply my opinion, nothing more or less concerning my feelings about art and what defines art. First and foremost I believe that what is art lies in the eyes of the beholder, or in the same respect the artist who put on the production, or recorded a particular song, or decided to paint. Something may be art to one, but not to another. I think what is considered "art" is partly due to the culture or cultures one has been exposed to, one's personality, past experiences, and simply personal taste.
"Art is made to disturb. Science reassures. There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain".Georges Braque.
To me this basically says one cannot explain art, there are not facts or quotas when it comes to art, it is about expression and exploring oneself.
"Don't be an art critic, but paint, there lies salvation".Paul Cezanne
Basically do not judge what is beautiful or disturbing, what is worth money or not a nickle, but rather immerse oneself into the process of developing a great piece that speaks to you. Also, it is important to not follow the times or what is popular or trendy but to decide what speaks to you and which one can relate.
