What is art? Does it makes sense to lable physical objects as "art"?

I'd say art is something from which an individual can draw a meaning that can be shared with others; kind of like a tribute to our collective good.
I'd argue that if everyone were individualistic and not in any type of community whatsoever (every human being out for themselves and having zero connection with others) there would be no art as there would be no desire for collective understanding.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 14 09:04:13 2015 No.6267555 yeah i read through after posting >>6267550 and i'd say >>6265557 put it into words that I'd never have been able to.
