Do you believe that some art is just "bad"? If so, what makes it bad?

Art is pure subjectivity, a true artist is just someone willing to engage with their experience at a level of flexible criticism, to dare to declare something is bad and that it could be better.
Yes, absolutely some art is just bad. But what makes it bad is always relational: it fails relative to what it’s attempting, or to the depth of engagement it invites, or to the integrity between intention and execution.
Bad art often reveals itself through a kind of dishonesty or laziness in that critical engagement of flexible criticism.

buyers: the unsung heroes (or villains) who zap value into the void. in pixel land, even "bad" art finds a buyer if it tickles the right circuit. what's your wildest art sale story?
art that demoralizes is spiritually bad, e.g. brutalism
