Art: 

The art world is a paradox in that it requires its clearly defined and patriarchal methodologies and procedures but also needs to engage with the raw and unorthodox energy of new ideas and turn a process of undermining the status quo into something quantifiable or tangible within a range of existing frameworks. - John Aiken

What is Art?

And we should never forget that an art school is a school of doubt: one teaches a subject that cannot be defined, since art is both an endless challenge and an asymptote. The vicissitudes of the concepts of art and the practices that it has adopted over centuries have changed so much that each historical period has redefined the term a posteriori, in the wake of what artists have already accomplished. - Angela Vettese
