Despite the journey being much longer than the actual event, it was still a very fun trip. What still amazes me is what is considered art. I mean Rauschenberg found a taxidermy goat and called that art. He called a tire tract a piece of art. We as a society have deemed this so. What can or cannot be art? Are they any guidelines to what art can’t be? What distinguishes Rauschenberg’s tire and Van Gogh’s Starry Night as they are both art? What distinguishes “good art” from “bad art”? If I draw a circle, is that art? If someone like Rembrandt or Picasso drew the exact circle, would that be art? Is art something only famous people can create? Are these even questions we can answer?
