This came up in literature class - a group of Students in an Art class in Seattle filmed them hittiing a 2 year old cat and skinning it alive, and they called it art
They were obviously arrested, but demanded that they did it for art
- Thoughts?
personally: I think it it horrible art, but art just the same

If that was classified as art, all Serial Killers would be artists and probably be able to bail themselves out of jail.

1. the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance.
If you really wanted to twist this definition, you could say so.

Everything is art, or at least has the potential to be. That doesn't mean you shouldn't arrest people for doing/making it in certain circumstances.

Well, the situation in question is just asking if it's art or not. Depending on the explanation of the individuals (beyond "it's for art"), it'd vary. Better be a damn good reason.

Hunt around online for the vid, it's called Kingston the Cat. It's Fucking brutal though
NO REALLY. I've seen some messed up crap online . But this is horrible to the 20th degree. If you've ever liked an animal or have a pet you'll either cry or want to do it yourself (if you already into that sort of thing)

I've watched a video of some people in Asia or whatever skinning wolves and shit and beating them to death. Pretty brutal (Sorry Tyler ).

tsk, fucking andre.
after that discussion we had in philosophy class...you know, when the entire class turned on you (don't worry, i won't tell these people why)...its no surprise to me that you'd think this is a form of art.
