Art is anything that works, just like in evolution, it is neither work or luck, but BOTH.

I have seen paintings labored over I think are crap. I have seen others that are simplistic that I like. I have read books that are wordy that I hate and others that are layman that I love. I have read poetry that is wordy that I love and poetry that isn't rhyming that I love.

Art is neither the acceptance or rejection of the simple or complex, but your own personal taste. It depends and is highly subjective.
