Personally, I think that Art is something that creates, innovates, not just follows something that is already existant. And at the same time it summons emotions in the people that look upon it. "Art" influences people, calls up emotions either good or bad, where-as "art" makes you stop, say: that's pretty, look at how they did this and that... and then you just move on.

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."

I like it too! I wish I had that way with words.
