"Art" doesn't necessarily have to be a painting or a sculpture. Art can be nature (such as mountains, trees, flowers), Sex, heat, food and so on.
Many of you might disagree with me, but that's what the word "art" means for me.

I find such art rather inhuman - not for the bounds of appreciation in a pleasing non-extremelly perverted manner.

look at that black silhouette in its finest artistry. look closer, and you'll see a female figure bent over with a giant bone up her urethra.
i call a masterpiece. a dog illustrated their love for a woman, and their love for a bone in the same picture.
Marvelous.

Re: Is Art Necessarily Human?
And the Van Gogh above is my favorite. He suffered for his art, and great art cannot be without suffering, for even with Maxfield Parrish, say, another favorite of mine, there is the implicit backdrop of human suffering in the mind of the beholder that makes the ideal a redemption.
