There has been some debate about this of late. What consitutes Art? And if one person's 'art' is another person's personification of personal nightmares where does that leave us?

So, examples, and a poll.

Young [livejournal.com profile] thipe created two... pictures. Have a look. Decide - fine art, or horror?

See, I'd always say that art is art no matter how uncomfortable it is to view.

However, I have now added a caveat to this belief 'except then Hoff/Shat is involved'.

Yes, I think it is both art and horror.

Your last answer category was biased and so I ignored it.

Maybe that's in case we have a THESMETHIPEBABY

Unlikely, but still possible...

We could call it THIPME and train it to be an expert writer of SLASH

I have been in the Tate Liverpool and both of those are far more artistic than anything I saw there.

Yes. But then you are a VERY BAD LADY who uses the M words gratuitously and without warning.
