What Is Art

Cinemafia was interviewing Coop, an LA artist, and asked this question...

Quote:
cinemafia: For the kind of art that's more user-friendly, let's just call it cute art, what separates that from craft? I mean, is it still art if it's not pushing any boundaries, not making people uncomfortable
What the fuck is that about? If you're not "pushing boundaries" and/or making people "uncomfortable", it's only craft and not art? I'm having a hard to buying that concept. Granted there are different levels of capability (and that's super subjective), but to discredit someone being an artist because they aren't "pushing boundaries"/"making people uncomfortable", is bullshit.
