The general consensus is that the intent of art is to communicate an emotional experience to someone else that they can then share empathetically through viewing the art. Some, not all, also contend that art must have aesthetic value. The person who created the exhibit on trash was likely making a statement and did more than just import a pile of trash into the museum and trying to communicate something he or she felt that others might comprehend and experience when viewing said art. Some also argue that art has to be enduring but that's also controversial. However if you look in the toilet before flushing and say "HEY! That looks like a picasso!" it's not art. Sorry. Art is not art just because you want to call it that. If you don't believe me go ask the curator of just about any museum in the world.

The pony is craft, not art. Even the person who made it said she wasn't calling herself an artiste or trying to capture some sort of emotional experience that she hoped to evoke in others. She was making a craft for a friend.

Truthfully I don't have to pretend to know a lot about anything. I just happen to know a lot about a lot of things. It's not about being important. It's about being educated and informed, something you might try.
