A modernist would call art anything that takes something that has already been established and deliberately taking in a new direction in an effort to divert from the norm. I think many modernists would agree that anyone can call something art; they're all about the individual spirit and independence.
Modernists would be willing to call anything art, because in order to make modernist art they have to first admit that something else is art so that they can deliberately depart from that; just because something isn't their brand of artwork doesn't mean they won't agree it can't be classified as art. They may not like it (classical art), but they would probably be willing to respect it as an art form.
