A century of re-defining of what art is and for what? So that an art student can say "I think realism is the most important aspect of art"? Really? Was the 20th century just a passing dream, an unreality? This is why I hate art students. They are so full of shit.... it's always either too conservative like here, or too "art is everything" like in Goldsmiths. There is never a happy medium but either way I will always lean towards the more liberal absurd definition of art rather than trying to put limits on what art can be.
That being sad, I hate deviantart.com. It's full of those conservative idiots. All the "liked" pictures are always realistic, drawn/painted with precision, is this what you value in art? How well-defined the features of that woman look on canvas? How well the brushstrokes are disguised? Come on we have hyper-realism for that. There is no freedom in art, or too much.
Completely off topic, how artsy is the new season of Skins??? Amazing shots, cinematography, sometimes it doesn't view as "teen drama" but as independent art film. Acting is awful but it adds to the beauty of it. It's so unrealistic that it makes so much more sense for everyone that was ever in the situation of those characters. For the first time, Skins is not about the most popular group of people, but the least - the freaks, and metalheads, the ambiguous sexualities, gay Dads, adopted child. Things that are more interesting than drugs drugs drugs. The second episode - no mention of drugs and alcohol only mentioned briefly. I am so impressed! The American Skins is not so bad either but I need to see more to determine if it is actually worth watching.

I liked the "new" limits or borders for definition of art given in your post - absurd and precision. Geographically thinking the precision is the northern borders and the absurd is the southern borders of the kingdom. Hmm... how about the western and eastern ones?
