Response to Katherine's "Offensive Art"

I believe that they aren't so much more important than one another as they are different. It requires the intention of the creator for something to be considered art. However the quality of the art is judged by the audience.
If an artist produces a song it is most certainly art. It meets all of the basic qualifications of art. It is intended to be art and it is a creation. But if nobody likes the song it is considered a bad song. It's still art, but it has been deemed bad art. But that's only if the question involves the quality of art. If the question is, "What is more important to the decision of something being art the intention or the reception?" then I'd say the intention is not only more important but completely integral, the reception is irrelevant.
