Here's my approximate definition of art and it has almost nothing to do with the product involved (and it has definitely changed a lot over the years; not too long ago I would have been among those wondering why much in SFMOMA is considered art).
Art is the intersection of the ego implicit in standing before the world and saying "this thing, for which I am responsible for placing in this context/configuration/construction/composition, is worthy of your attention simply as the thing it is" and at least one other person saying "you're right."
