Art is not a reality it is a concept to people choose to believed in.

i think your explanation says it best "art CAN be defined as" another definition as provided by Oxford English dictionary is art-"the expression of creative skill through a visual medium such as painting or sculpture." First, the fact that there are multiple definitions for this one word "art" that do not necessarily correlate with each other means that its relative to the person defining it. As such it cannot have a set standard or have any one person or level of skill achieved by any one person that would universally be a considered art. Second, your definition assumes that everyone has found something beautiful. If one person in their existence has never found something beautiful, then art doesn't exist. Third, taking your definition, someone can believe something aesthetically pleasing and someone else can believe it is hideous, thus making it based on a personal opinion. much like a religion, people believe in it based on nothing but a feeling and a personal belief, no actual definitive evidence. your other point i never said Third, taking your definition, someone can believe something aesthetically pleasing and someone else can believe it is hideous, thus making it based on a personal opinion. much like a religion, people believe in it based on nothing but a feeling and a personal belief, no actual definitive evidence. your other point i never said art was non existent. i said art was an unproven concept and based on belief. an you hit the nail on the head by saying "it exists if only in a persons mind". i also said i didn't believe in it.
