In regards to the clothespin statue, is scale the determining factor? I wouldn't believe you would accuse the production line at a clothespin factory of being staffed with artists, even if one got stood on end outside of a public building. Can experiencing the subject of a work of art be as artistic an experience as experiencing the work of art itself, and if so does that make the subject art?
As far as performance art is concerned, is a Willie Mays catch, or a Ted Williams swing artistry on the same level as ballet or opera? If you answer no, would it be appropriate for me to conclude that you need to spend more time learning to appreciate the history of the artist and the significance of his body of work?
