Are there any limits to art?

I would say yes, but would that not make me a critique of the arts? Of course limitations are required, but would that not send more artists to create such pieces in rebellion? For there is art in rebellion as much as in submission. The boring artist abides by the cruelly set rules, yet the controversial one attempts with all his might to tear them down, to force the public to view what they are too afraid or refuse to see in themselves. For what is a good artist if he fails to invoke something uncharacteristically human in someone? His art is worthless the. Worth only comes about if it has changed another with such orbital density that they cannot be moved back into place. One cries for ethical concerns but is met with an even louder roar of an apposing force: statues of women peeing on the streets, a museum made of human flesh, all an outspoken statement against the norm and an attempt at outrageous discomfort.

I feel that there are ethical limitations, thus the ban on certain art forms in different countries.It also has very much to do with ones culture and religious affiliations
