Art is the conveyance of meaning through a work, not the method by which the work was created (although that can sometimes contribute to the meaning).

No, today, "Art" is anything an artist can convince a source of cash that the cash they want is for this argument claiming some object/event/scribble/thought is "Art".

I'm a professional artist, where are these sources of cash I can convince to give me money instead of spending all my money from my day job on materials?
