For art's sake

The Turner Prize exhibition in the UK can usually be relied on to reignite the debate about what is art and what isn't. The BBC has reprinted comments from various newspaper art critics on this year's exhibition, which includes rubbish on a floor and people apparently working in an office. Nigel Reynolds of the Daily Telegraph wrote in response to the office installation:
The biggest talking point is likely to be generated by a work that could have been crafted by Harold Pinter for the theatre. ... Was this art? Yes, definitely, because the artist said so, explained Katherine Stout, one of the curators."

Is this blog art? As its author, I say Yes.
