what are you saying? that art is considered high art b/c it is original and unique and authentic? art or a form of art or movement, is considered high art, good art, pivoting force that changed a new paradigm because no one did it before? what if someone had come a long and took a shit on a canvas and then painted a beautiful portrait of a woman (realistically well done) with shit; a turd of beauty, with picture-likeness, realistic smile, and intense eyes? would that be considered high art? that's bull-shit! That does not make a piece of "original art" high art!

"i think uniqueness and originality is high art! the fact that an artist comes along and makes a body of work that influences society, it had never been done before this artist came along, this i think is high art; whether some people like it or not, it elevates the status of art by generating a new and different mode of thinking; in terms of artistic faculties? it transcends them; it becomes a pure thought because it gives rise to originality and creativity on a higher plane of existence; at the same time, the idea that an artist created a body of work that changed or shifted the direction in which art was heading, is as equally important; not to mention the amount of discussion, exploration and examination it disperses throughout and within our human experience, generating new knowledge..."

Bull-shit! That is not true!

"I think it is!"
