    I heard a definition of art once I still live by.

    When someone presents his work as a work of art, it is art. The only question that remains is. Is it good art, or is it bad art.

    I also learned the term art has a different meaning in Europe than in for example the States.

    If there's one thing new media has done for art it's making the entry level extremely low. You don't need a lot of money to start and you can exhibit your work to the world without the approval of a gallery owner or a museum.

    The huge pool of artwork that followed devaluated art in a way, because people are practically giving it away. But it is also forcing the upper class artists to push the envelope even more, because there is so much competition.
