Talking out your ass. Art is subjective, it has to be. You cannot define the quality of art. If you value it monetarily, I can point out plenty of vapid, meaningless, expensive art. If you value it in terms of complexity and technical mastery, I can point out plenty of pretentious, tasteless yet complex art. If you value it in terms of popular appeal, I can point out plenty of art that lacks any defining character or distinction, but is wildly popular.
The reason for this is that the concept of "value" exists outside of art. Art cannot be valued or placed into a hierarchy. It serves only the individual that witnesses it, and therefore does not become an economic entity.
