art and Art, does there need to be a difference, it's all to do with the mysticysm that surrounds the art as to wether (using your definitions) it is Art - it is a cultural and fashion led abstract. Great works of art from the past would not be considered so
if created today, the Mona Lisa is a great work of art more through it's reputation than through it's depiction of the lady in question.
The art world and those who puport to be critics should not be the yardsticks through which you judge what art/Art is, art is a purely subjective experience - enjoy it and make your own decisions, let history decide which will be the graet works from this century
