I guess a lot of people don’t know a lot about art. This was surely inspired by “The Treachery of Images” by Rene Magritte. His painting depicts a tobacco pipe with a caption (in French) reading, “This is not a pipe.” It was painted in 1929 near the end of the Surrealist art period.
So much art is not art. Or at least not very good art. And so many art/wine/food/movie/music critics are so full of themselves they can’t wear spandex because it doesn’t strech enough

Best explanation of what is “art” IMHO: If the creator of the work says it’s art, it is. I consider my work “craft”, not “art”.

It may not be art, but I’m sure they can find someone willing to buy it for a high price.
