Quick question regarding the definition of 'Art'...

I know this is a bit different from my poo related vulgarities, but if any of you have an opinion on the following, I'd love to hear your input.

Art, in all of its forms, is indeed subjective. I understand that. However, if a piece of art (Be it a sculptor, a painting or whatever) is displayed, accompanied by an 'Explanation' of it - 'The reason for the yellow is that the artist wanted to represent... etc' then does it cease to truly be art?

In other words, if it needs to come with an explanation, then is it still art?
