I'd call what you describe as impressive, art.

Flashy trashy is just crap. Some might call it art but then again everything is art these days.

The greatest form of art is the discussion on whether something is art or not.

When you see a broken toilet sitting in an art gallery selling for 5 million dollars and someone thinks "I could do that, this is stupid", they have completely missed the point. The art is not the broken toilet, the art is selling it for 5 million dollars - which is something the complaining person definitly cannot do. That's the art.
