Openness of art.

We ve discussed this subject, almost to exhaustion in class, but I'd like to add few things, that I thought of outside of class.

The 30 pots I mentioned in class... they all may be the same, created by skilled art-craftsman/woman. How is that when we see one, we think:

"Okay that's art, a lot of intention, creativity, and skill was involved into making that."

But when we see all 30 we go on label them as craft, mass produced, not unique, repetitive.

Author/Craftsman aside what makes the human creation an Art?

People make things constantly, they label them many things, but what exactly is it

Is Art a truth?

Is there a objective truth behind ART, solid answer, or universal meaning?
