Is this Art??

[mercury]

Having recently visited The Tate Gallery at Albert Dock in Liverpool. I came across these fine specimens of  "art"?   Is it just me? or is a pile of blankets, 2 bundles of rags tied with string and a wonky table really art?  I could see that some of the unusual objects could be deemed as art.. Bundles of old wire etc but these?   Opinions please?

No

Based on the following definition
ART ....."the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power"

I would say.....No

But I reckon someone  will say "yes"

I






I can see that these sort of are..... Lot of work gone into them anyway...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder..................but then, look at some of Picasso's work!

A case of "The Kings new clothes"

Did he get them from the Emperor?   

[Jacqui Harvey]

Yes, probably...   
However, when Danny Kaye sang it, it was The Kings New Clothes.
