There is a disagreement, though, because it's about which aspect takes precedence -- which has the most value. Imagine a test called Artistic Quotient which gives you a numeric value for how correctly you draw lines, circles, etc. An average artist might have an AQ of 100 and a very good artist an AQ of 120. Now, imagine looking at a Van Gogh and saying, that the artistic expression he achieved is worth 80 AQ points, putting him on the level of someone who can free hand a perfect circle! It would sound ridiculous, right? Who cares if you can free hand a perfect circle? What does that give you? What's the value of that? Instead you would tell an aspiring artist, get to an AQ 120 or so as your foundation and then it's all about making something out of it.
