both at the same time.

The market prices for modern art are just due to it being used for money laundering.

Depends on what you mean by "good". I'd say that "good" art is that which is produced with skill. In that case you could have art that was, by an objective standard, skillfully produced and would therefor be "good" while also being universally despised.

OP didn't ask WHY it was good.

There are several different systems for valuing art. That's about as objective as you can get.

On the other hand when art is turned into a commodity the profits become the ultimate objective measurement.

Good art is indeed subjective, but horrible art is objective

>>979485
ART CAN BE OBJECTIVELY JUDGED THROUGH THE USE OF OBJECTIVE PARAMETERS THAT HAVE ULTIMATELY BEEN CHOSEN SUBJECTIVELY

this is the only correct answer

How the message is interpreted subjective. The techniques used to convey the message are objective.

I think art speaks to the human condition, unlocks experience that is walled out by conventional language. It's objectively good if it unlocks this experience from the receiver, but subjective in the sense that it's an experience held strictly by the individual.

So in other words, it's technically subjective, but humans have enough commonality where objective or 'pseudo-objective' measurement could be applied generally.

tl;dr: to the extent to which people are similar, it's objective and to the extent to which people are individually dissimilar, it's subjective.

Art is objective, reaction/categorization is subjective.

Since most of /his/ rejects objectivity, how can anything be objective?

I think it's inter-subjective. I don't think there are many people that would think the sistine chapel is shit, or the mona lisa. But there are plenty of people that dislike dada art or any form of modernism. But there's really no objective criteria.

>or any form of modernism
Those people are generally memeshitting retards that either through stupidity or dishonesty equate modernism with ab ex though.

Yeah modern art is hard to understand and it requires a lot of patience. Something most people lack. No wonder all dictators ban it.
