You would have to define art in order to define what isn't it. Classically, you might have been able to narrow that definition down to perhaps a handful of tropes, however the 20th century spent a good deal of time and energy breaking those models and building 100s of new ones to stand along side them.
What is Not Art to an academic is a completely different question than say What is Not Art to the henge fund wank that spent 95k on one of Richard Prince's "repurposed" Instagram canvasses.
The original question is good philosophical and intellectual wankery but definitively only that.
