My original feeling from day one, is that teachers get in the way of
creativity,
specially those with the most success. Perhaps true philosophers in
aesthetics
would make better teachers of art.
The area where, in aesthetics, all art exists,regardless of taste.
Where we all
perceive the essence of all things, individually differently, is a
Gold Mine ,Why
would teachers want to direct that, in individual creativity by
teaching the
successful path of others and discouraging one's individual taste.
I think art was never made to be taught or controlled be
anyone,except by the
freedom of each individual's will to make their own path.

Given your almost exclusive concern with subjectivity -- how do you
think such
determinations should be made ?
Or do you strike a laissez-faire attitude, and just let such things
happen as
they will?

The truth is, that, what we see as beautiful," Is beautiful" to
each one of
us, individually. That is based on our individual mind's
experiences of
beauty. The more one experiences, the more "subjective" judgments
one makes.
If beauty was in the object, we would not have be discussing
aesthetics.
Science would have settled that long ago, and they may, yet.
