>There is no such thing as great art. Everything is equal. You have nothing else. Who do you think your fooling in taking the position that a blank canvas is just as equal to the sistine chapel?
i didn't say that. you could have simply answered me by saying sistine chapel is better than a blank canvas because of its historical significance, symbolic significance, how well it visualized the texts of the bible and how much of his life michelangelo devoted to make this piece.
my point is that art is in fact objective but it's composed of many qualities (subjectivity in art comes from which quality you prefer and which things you relate to) like historical significance, creativity, effort, etc.
post modern art is an umbrella which contains avant-garde art, symbolic mockery, deconstructed ideas, skepticism, etc. you can't just say postmodern art is bad because you saw a 100 grand taped banana on your favorite mass media that feeds off clicks
