Things can be beautiful or interesting without being art. The crack in the wall, a naturally occurring landscape are examples of that. You could call them "art" but I think you'd be wrong. That's not a generally accepted meaning of the word.

Actually I'd refine my definition to say that art should be primarily for the purposes of expression and not for any other functional use.
