Well, in that regard I'd agree. I don't think beauty and art are the same though. :)

Something is art, in my opinion, if it's it's presented as art or perceived as art. I think art is often more interesting if someone puts more thought, effort and skill into it. Beauty and aesthetics are a different thing.
