What is art?

Is it a statue of a famous person? An arrangement of flowers? A revealing self-portrait?

Or is it an image of someone vomiting on a city sidewalk?

These days, just about anything can be considered art.

"That's a very tough question," says studio art graduate student Jeremy Forman. "One man's garbage is another man's treasure. So I can't really give you a straight answer on that."

Forman is one of five graduate students whose work is being featured at the MSU Department of Art & Art History Master of Fine Arts Exhibition, which runs through Sunday at Kresge Art Museum.
