Episode 1043 | Blurred Lines: Who and What Decides What Counts as Art?

When a public sculpture sparks debate in a local community, it opens up age-old questions: Who decides what art is? Does art need to be beautiful, skilled, or even human-made? In this episode of Exploring Art Podcast, we explore how intention, audience, and context all shape the meaning of art. Drawing on course readings, real-world examples, and major philosophical perspectives, they dig into what makes art be art. We also expand on to questioning what exactly is art for us and we come down to the conclusion that art doesn't have a specific meaning. We go through various themes that all fall under the umbrella of what and who defines what art is as well as what is considered art.
