confused about meaning

I missed class y'all! Did not try to do that.

we have recently discussed the idea of an art world with out the artist retaining the authorship of the pieces they create.If the author should die...then so shall the art critic. if authorship belongs to the viewer then the art critic has nothing to offer, that is of greater importance than the bum on the corner.
what am i to do when the bum on the street tells me that my painting illustraits the way rats fuck? cry. as an artist and critic i see a need for both to hold authorship. Art that does not educate, inspire or inform is simply intertaining. and who wants that?
i need feed back on this one. any one who can and will respond to this.
