But the outrage over the price is a reflection of the lack of education and serious engagement in art both on the part of individual and wider media.
So, you don't think it's an example of 'good' art, but you also think that anyone who is outraged at the $6m+ price tag shows a lack of education and/or serious engagement with art?
I'm perfectly happy with opinions on art being subjective (I mean, I'd almost go as far to say as it's pretty much always going to be the case), but your original post did reek of snobbery IMO.

I deleted my post as I can’t be bothered and preferred the puns, but given your response I’ll rewrite it.
You can dispute if it’s good or not, and if you decided not I’d happen to agree with you. But you cannot say it’s not art
Just because you don’t like a thing doesn’t make it not that thing
