Question:

How do you differentiate between artistic and offensive?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

As the saying goes - "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". It is very difficult to make a statement whether it is offensive or art as people from different lifestyle and different background would view art in a different light.

If you are an artistic person, than nothing will be offensive, because you are looking at it from the point of view of an artist. On the other hand, if you come from a conservative background or from a culture that frowns on rudeness than it would be offensive.

So one cannot draw a line between art and offensiveness.
