My definition of art is reasonably simple but certainly not scientific. Something is art, to me, if it intentionally evokes some connotation beyond its literal presentation or denotation. If a pipe is just a pipe then it isn't art.

I see no way to define art objectively. Even if you wire up my brain and categorize my responses to objects (paintings, statues, literature, songs, ...) they may not apply to any other person's responses to the same objects.
