I visited a Modern Art Gallery once, I think it was in New York. There was a room that was totally empty, except for a suit hanging from the ceiling. It was old and full of holes. I had a little chuckle at the "holy suit" bit, but then I got to thinking. Can this really be considered art? What is art? What can qualify something as art? Can I make millions off hanging my old sweaters in an empty room? So that's my question. What is art?
I suppose I should also list my answer to the question. I think art needs to evoke thought and emotion. But it also needs to be created through those qualities. Some effort needs to be put in, and it should have been made with an intention.
