I think all art has meaning. In it's own way, decoration does have meaning too, making it art. Not everyone can see that meaning though. I remember going on a field trip to an art museum when I was in elementary school and seeing this one painting. It was just a small square in the middle of a canvas. I remember being so confused. Why would that be considered art? It's just a square. Although it seems like "just a square" to most of us, the artist could have had a specific meaning in mind. The artist may not have known what it meant either, but something led them to create it. Therefore, art without meaning can still be called art.
