the boarder between art and not art is without any transition. Folk art
e.g. does have all kinds of "tasks", one is to suite, to decorate.

This is a simplified statement. I guess it's Woody Allen's "Hannah and
Her Sisters" were somebody wanted to buy a painting, that should fit to
the color of the sofa. Design isn't the same as art, handcrafts isn't
the same as art. Sure, art you like will fit to your psyche, but it's
not the target to please people, it should give people a wake call.
