I strongly disagree with this statement, in the context of the definition of "art" that Ebert was using. His definition also excludes the vast majority of movies, paintings, and other things that are generally acknowledged as "art". Ebert was talking about sublime art. It's easy for something to be creative without being sublime.
- cholantesh 9y agoEbert ultimately had to invent that definition of art when he found himself unable to defend his original premise. Or, really, unwilling,because he didn't want to spend time playing video games so as to bolster his argument.
