I got 7/16 because I thought it all looked like crap too. They asked me if I admired the fire extinguisher at the last gallery I went to. No, because there was actual design in the gallery!
another useless tidbit: I knew # 2 was "not art" because Marcel Duchamp famously signed his name to an urinal, declared it a fountain, and entered it in a show. interesting movement, dada. they really tried to challenge the conceptions of what is art.
i got nine. and i missed the same four in a row as mariser. GB, that first one wasn't an iceberg, it was christo's "wrapped coast." it's not his best. his more recent work is muchcooler.
yeah, that one fooled me. i didn't look closely enough and clicked "art" knowing that. i should have realized my mistake four pictures later when duchamp showed up for real.
That one actually surprised me because I do not care for Christo's work at all. I think his work is tacky and he tries to hard to make it like he's not trying so hard to make it look like he's not... nevermind. Taste is subjective and the enemy of art.
I knew some of the items were "art", but I marked them as crap anyway for my own personal preferences.
I got 16, and I would have gotten a higher score if I could have brought my self to click "art" on some of the crap. But I couldn't. The problem with this test is that "art" and "crap" are not mutually exclusive.

I thought it all looked like rubbish, but I tried to play fair, so got 8 out of 16.
Well, all of it was rubbish, except the choco bunnies, which were exquisite.
12/16 and I did mark the bunnies as art. wouldn't want the bunneh overlords to disapprove.
prob'bly did OK for being quite familiar with the dada movement.
funny useless fact: got 4 wrong in a row, 8-11.
