I don't really care whether you like Cy Twombly or not. I was just pointing out that what constitutes art is subjective. Maybe he is a charlatan. Or maybe he's a genius. What a lot of people fail to understand about much of modern art is that the process of creating the art, the materials used, the meaning of the piece, etc are or can be just as important as the finished product. That doesn't mean you have to like the finished piece, but having an understanding of why the artist did what they did helps one to appreciate the art.
