There is no such thing as bad art, just as there is no such thing as good art. There is art. To quote renowned French artist Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968): “Art may be bad, good or indifferent, but, whatever adjective is used, we must call it art, and bad art is still art in the same way as a bad emotion is still an emotion.”
