I don't think it would work the same way for art. You can file the serial numbers off fic and still reach the same audience because you can change enough to avoid copyright but still hit the same buttons that drew them to the original - certain character dynamics or fantasy tropes or whatnot. Kinky porn is kinky porn regardless of what you call the characters.

Whereas fanart draws on people's interest in something that is, generally, in a different medium. Most people don't want Harry Potter fanart because they're really into dark-haired kids with whimsically shaped scars and striped scarves, they want it because they have an interest in the character who happens to look like that or the story that he comes from. So drawing pictures of a dark-haired kid with square glasses, a crescent-shaped scar, and a purple and yellow scarf just wouldn't work the same way. There's a lot more overlap between the markets for fanfic and original fiction than between the markets for fan art and original artwork.

Kinky porn is kinky porn regardless of what you call the characters.

How does this not work for art, too?

Or is fan fiction all porn now and fan art is all clean and holy?
