Design is a creative additive to a social function; used primarily to assist in the assimilation of understanding. While art's ending purpose is for an individual to look inward... Art causes exclusion more than anything. If its products purpose isn't to exclude, it is seen as design.

If art's purpose is for an individual to look inward, what about works of public or religious art? They are for outward looking and inclusiveness...
- I posit "art for art's sake" is a recent cultural invention...TheBlueOne
- ...I just really wanted to use "posit" in a sentence before I drove home.TheBlueOne
- any religious art isn't singular. It comes with its own rhetoric, ie Bible, sermon. Religious art is design. Because religion is a campaine of sorts. a design ploy to sway audiences that are not poised to read all the time.... research Medieval artImposeum

good words...
"a) The distinction between Art and Design seems to be lying more in the marketing paths (curator and client) than with the content of the work. Both ways offer different possibilities and limitations. A lot of designers imagine to change sides and become "artists" once they are through the groundwork of hassling with clients and ... then get really rich and snobby.b) Art is Art and Design is Design and there are very little terrains which overlap. Art must be free and radical, Design is about solving (other peoples) problems. Design is about organizing space while Art is about the structure ideas, the unexpected and uncharted.
You may decide which theory you'd like to apply based on the situation and your personal favour. Both theories work. Art is about ego, Design is about interaction and one would not function without the other. Art can be enigmatic, Design must not. We are fascinated by both freedom and discipline, but we are suspicious about DIY artists or/and designers who are into it for the wrong reasons. Graphic Design became successful as it provided a platform for a lot of talents to develop their own ideas and present them to a wider public WITHOUT external sometimes irrational limitations coming from curators or clients. We are trying to prepare and constantly redefine and enlarge the platform. "

Design is like pop music... it communicates simply, when successful... Art is about communication as well, but it's purpose isn't commercial

art is the process and product of expressing emotions in form.
design is grouped under applied art (together with for example jewelry). it is merely a discipline

art doesn't really has a definition. But I guess if other people respect what you made, or when you made something with a 'meaning' , I think you can call it art.
so:
Art is based on respect and the 'ideas' of the designer behind his work. Art should have much interpretations.
Like someone once said, if 1,000,000 people watch my movie, I hope they saw 1,000,000 movies.I kinda like that
- And then one million people reply in unison "We all saw the same movie" but only becuase they didn't undertsand the point being made.Spookytim
