I have test to tell whether art is great, sort of like your sofa test.

In 1000 years, when archaeologists dig it up, will they know it was great art?

the real measure of great art is "would you buy it if you could afford it?"

I live a short ways from a town in south central indiana that has lots of artists and thus lots of galleries. I've bought (probably) twenty or thirty paintings. A couple are phenomonally beautiful. (stare at them and get lost for a few hours type beauty) others are merely pretty. But all were worth the money. That is great art
