Should art come with a meaning, or is the meaning in the eye of the audience? Should people be offended by a frog on a crucifix? Is performing art, art? Is body modification art? so many questions, so little time!
I could also argue that there is no point to trouble our minds with all these questions. We try too hard to label stuff that we miss the point. To give a simple example:
What is the point of arguing what type of music is the best? They are all music and if you enjoy it, that is what matters. Whether you call it Rock, Indie, Jazz or Barbs Honeycutt, is kind of irrelevant. 😋

So true!! PS: don't tell a philosopher not to ask questions. We might not have answers, but we have all the questions ;)
