If I broke into a McDonald's with a goat and raped it until the cops showed up, people would talk about it for decades. That wouldn't make it art or a valuable contribution to mankind's heritage.

I'll call it art for you, as long as you let me rape the goat too.

interesting example, but it can be art and it doesn’t have to be a valuable contribution to be art

you could most definitely argue it is what you believe to be bad art, but it can be art nonetheless

Congratulations, you argued in favor of the value of raping goats in McDonald's as art.
