I would differ in that there need not be an attempt or intent to create art for the object to be art. Earlier, in response to Attila's comment about intent I simply responded with "Cave Paintings."
Some of these invoke all the responses mentioned in this thread, many are indeed considered as being art, some with animals show artistic talent that is amazing in that even then, artistic principles are apparent.
The point with using such as an example is that it is highly doubtful that these primitive artists had any intent what-so-ever to create "art."
To take this a little further, does an artist actually set down with the intent to create art? I don't think so, the artist sets down to create, period. With talent what the artists creates can be art, but the intent is not enough to guarantee an artistic outcome.
