The argument that photography is too true and therefore not art is interesting. If you use badly expired colour film then does it become art? How about if you can't focus the camera? Then does it become art?
Can't we go the other way? All past painting that tried to mimic reality are not art? Even if it failed we shouldn't reward the painter for failing to acheive reality. So the only paintings that are art are things like Robert Rauschenberg's " White Paintings" ?
