Discussion 

The Fountain art the Duchamp created is art because he says it's art. I personally don't think the physical object is art but the conversation the artwork opens up is important. The fact that it's done by an established artists pretending to be unknown and that causes it to be rejected. The piece has something to say on people that are popular or are thought highly of in society. Art is art as long as the artist says it's art. It doesn't always have to have a meaning. In some cases, Art does having meaning and when it does the meaning tends to be more important than the artwork it's self. It's like a symbol or a flag. It doesn't matter what's on the flag, what it matters is what it stands for. When it comes to Andy Warhol and his video on eating a hamburger for 4 minutes. He makes a point on his status that people watch the video because of who he is. It doesn't mean anything, other than a take on who he is and how popular he is.
