I completely agree, but neither of us would be considered to be appreciative of fine art.
AnswerI agree with you as well, but 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder.' Over 20 years ago two young men played a joke (not thinking it would go anywhere in the art world) and got chickens, dipped their feet in paint and let them run across the canvas. They framed the canvas and lo and behold it ended up in an art museum and that's when these two young men dropped the bomb! It was an embarrassment to the art world.It's an individuals choice to decide what they feel art is. Although they may look at modern art and see this and that in the painting that's half the fun. 10 people in one room could get different vibes off the painting. Then there are the so-called art lovers who feel if it's weird it's got to be great. I had a friend that had a painting that had 4 lines, a couple of dots on it and it was suppose to represent the universe. Excuse me! LOL Of course I didn't tell my friend what I thought of their art and that I felt they had been royally shafted paying some $45,000 for this mess.
Another answer:
What art I enjoy is importatnt only to me. What you enjoy is up to you.
When you say (in your question) 'they sell it for...'.
They can't sell it if nobody enjoys it. The person who buys a piece of art has found something in it which is worth the price. If you do not like it is of no consequence.
