Note that the quote doesn&#x27;t say &quot;if it&#x27;s in a museum, it isn&#x27;t art&quot;. What is means to say is that you should be able to recognize a true work of art no matter where you see it. (I dare say you would recognize a Rembrandt or a Monet even on a rubbish dump.) If you see an object, and the only reason that you classify that object as &quot;art&quot; is because it&#x27;s in a museum and some poster tells you that it is &quot;art&quot;, then one should question whether that object deserves the accolade of being called so.
