Methinks art has not a definition with or without some sort of a monetary value attached to the piece, beautiful art can be expensive, or free, we have many ways of expressing art, and it's not about how it is expressed, it is about how one feels when one makes it. Art is only art when the emotion of making the art go beyond having to make something, art is only art when the artist's emotion is represented in the form that portrays others in tune with the emotion to feel what the artist felt when they expressed the art in whichever way they chose to express it.

Art does not have to be beautiful, art does not need to be PG rated, and most of all, art does not need to be in the box.
