The definition of art is controversial and there are is no real answer to the question what is art. What i can only say is my own personal opinion for the matter which means that there is no absolut theory. I believe that art is what people make for aesthetic reasons and not for practical ones.Simlpy if any object is being created or changed for aesthetic reasons (even if the artist does not what to make it look better) that alteration or creation is called art. If something is created or improved for practical reasons only, as a part of an engineering design that was made with the idea of how to evolve something just to maximize its functions, i believe it's not art. Since many things on a painting or anything someone creates can be made by accident, one of the controversial parts of the definition of art is if those characteristics of the particular piece were planned to be made by the artist or if we are in a place to consider any accident as art piece. But many times we call something artistic because it gives us a feeling of awe even if its creator was not an artist. Is every person who is being creative called an artist? I believe every one can define art based on his/her likes and dislikes and experience of life. Everyone has a right to call the greatest piece of art, as judged by others, a junk and a junk a piece of art. I do not believe that knowledge about art history or techniques or generally any connection with the art environment is essential for a personal opinion to be appreciated about an art piece. In other words I do not identify the existence of right and wrong when it has to do with art thus anyone can criticise or feel free to make art. In my personal view art shouldn't occupy the life of an artist because many interesting or distructing facts are happening around us and a lot of people face them in a different way from the view of an artist. Some people suffer to produce art and some people suffer to survive.
