#1 - I promote the following functional understanding of art - Art is the intentional communication of an experience as an end-in-itself. This is definition is broad, but focuses on how art arises in a social setting, which I believe is the correct node to attach definitional significance.
#2 - Pollock's #28 at the Met because, to me it signifies the basic interconnections of reality & Du
Champs' "Nude Descending Stairway" (there are actually a few of them) because they capture three dimensional movement in a two-dimensional space.
#3 - I have never been a fan of Lichtenstein. This may have nothing to do with the art and more with the fact that I never got into graphic novels. I don't care for Greek Orthodox Iconography because the portraits are unnecessarily flat and the children all seem to look like miniature adults. As a bonus I don't care for the work of Grandma Moses because stubbornly resists conforming to a sense of perspective.
