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'?
