ps
how to judge "art"?
for many subjective things, esp works of "art", long lasting popularity is the best judge. that is if any kind of judgment is needed or possible in the first place.
imo there is no need for such judgment. it is just a matter of personal taste: one enjoys something or one doesn't. but some ppl try to be arbiters of taste (lol) and presume to judge artistic merit using arbitrary values, which they present as objective measuring sticks.
so to repeat, if anyone needs such a ruler, only one acceptable is long lasting popularity.
