outsourcing art

from sociological images:

“…Chinese people, mostly from the countryside, are trained to paint copies of photographs or paintings en masse and those paintings are sold to tourists elsewhere in the world.”

if it’s mass produced to this scale, is it really art? the “art of copying” is there for sure, but i can’t help but feel that something valuable is lost along the way…
