Craft is also a creativity, art is more. Not going to repeat what many people in this thread already said about art. You cannot see distinction it's ok, others can.
And if you need facts and not reasons, just read some popular books (or trying to be popular ) and tell me that's art. That's enough facts for me at least.
And if you are not against drawing parallels and conclusions from other art forms look what Hollywood done to movies as art form - amputated it would be a mild way of putting it - in pursuit of popularity and money.
