Just because people don't agree with your opinion doesn't make them wrong, and just because you don't like certain artworks, that doesn't lessen their merit as works of art.

Personally, I can't stand a single thing that Mark Rothko has produced, but I can accept that he is an artist and that what he produces is art.

Not all art is produced for your approval.
