>The exaltation is shallow because art is by spectacle an artifice.
No shit it's an artifice. The primary factor that makes art as impressive as it is, is the education and dedication to complete it. There is nothing special nor unique about some faggot or some nigger making a shitty drawing and saying it challenges the white hetero normative atmosphere of western society. If that piece is well made and incredibly designed/structured in such a way that it cannot help but draw people's attention due to the talent and effort put in to craft it, then it is truly worthy of praise.

Which, like I said, goes along with the idea that the primary meaning behind "art" is the artist themselves, creating a sort of unique brand for their specific quality, style, and talent. Nobody cares about your little DeviantArt digital paintings about white men standing on the necks of black people, Timmy.
