How to determine the quality of art was recently discussed in another thread:
http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/sp...pam-97752.html

As I mentioned in that thread, the quality of art can be judged by for instance the skill demanded to produce the work, the degree of novelty, the degree of impact on the field of art and influence in other areas ie politics, society, development etc, whether it is genre creating or genre defining etc.
