Do people still want to see religious paintings? What about them do people want to see nowadays?
From a non-religious point of view at least.

What is attractive now? Not necessarily to the 'masses' but to everyone?

Clothes. Everyone has clothes.
Not everyone gives a shit though.
What do people want to see in a gallery?
Do they want to see something serious?
Something fun?
Something beautiful?
Something disgusting?
Something nobody has said before.

Kids sit in the Tate and are told to draw. Sure, but they should be asked to discuss the meaning of art, what they see and how it makes them feel.

Is art work?
What art is taken "seriously"?
Should it?

Kids don't give a shit about the meaning of art. Meaning is given to art by adults. Children's art has no reason.
Is reason something it lacks or something it doesn't need?
