| I find this sort of question frustrating because it's a bit like asking how many angels can fit on the head of a pin, or what is beauty.  For art, a definition becomes a boundary, and art is nothing without the ability to break free of boundries.  Art lies in creation, not in appreciation.
 I like this quote from sculpter Alberto Giacometti:
 
 "The object of art is not to reproduce reality, but to create a reality of the same intensity."
