Art- in response to oldenburg

In his article, to basically sum it up in one sentence, he seems to be into the art of the everyday. From the little miniscule things that people may not pay attention to or take for granted to the large-scale happenings. Everything can be art in his mind. The purpose was to move art from out of the stale museums and into the streets. To bring it back to place where the idea was formed. Instead of creating art in a studio somewhere to be hung up on a wall, the point was to view it in its natural environment.
This question of what art is or what art should be has been an enigma in itself, because with each new movement they tend to reject the old way and make up new rules. This is of course the job of the Avant-garde but you cannot say that he is wrong for making this claim. I believe that art is whatever you make it as long as there is true meaning in what you do. If you can clearly articulate the reasons for why you produce art and get people to understand your methods then you too can claim that what you are doing is art.
