So the documentary photography of Andre Kertesz, Robert Frank, Bill Brandt, 
Diane Arbus, W. Eugene Smith, Josef Koudelka, Inge Morath, Raghu Rai, August 
Sander, Dorothea Lange, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Walker Evans, Eve Arnold, Ernest 
Cole, Lewis Hine, Lee Friedlander, Philip Jones Griffiths, Brassai, Richard 
Avedon etc etc doesn't qualify as 'art'?

Are you sure you know what you're talking about?
