Both art and music can be distinguished from good to bad. There are standards (also called the fundamentals) that form the basis of an artist's toolkit for expression. Then there's the artist's intent and how successfully observing (or inventively deviating from) the fundamentals are employed for the final work. This is currently an unpopular position among everyone except people interested in developing a high degree of skill in an artistic craft, which is not possible unless standards are observed.
