Art is anything you do to express yourself, as long as it's done with purpose. In this sense no one can decide what art is except for the person who is creating it. The quality of the art, however, is determined by other people. Not just anyone can judge art. Only people who know what art truly is and know and understand all types of art can determine. Someone who hates dancing and knows nothing about it could not say whether or not a dance is good. Same goes for painting or writing or singing. Anyone who calls something that is designed with purpose "kitch" is unimaginative, intolerant, and unsophisticated. Only true artists can understand and respect a work of art when they see it.
Conclusion: Art is always art if it is created with a purpose, and the only people who can judge it are fellow lovers of art.
