Art is information composed of data as a means and goal in itself and for itself. Examples: Fiction, Music, Painting, Photography, Poetry. Art is not made to be profitable but as a means for itself and in itself.
It doesn’t have to be pleasing, it doesn’t need to be nice, it doesn’t have to be understandable or entertaining, and, first of all, art doesn’t have to make money.
Art may be or do anything, art doesn’t have to be or do anything. Artistic information is free by its own definition. That’s why art needs to be tutored, sponsored, supported by the state, by corporations and by the individual.
