I think they wouldn't want to call it "furry" in a "Serious art Forum". Because "furry" is what they call "kitsch" in the art world. This isn't necessarily a bad things. It's just "serious artists" are supposed to try and do something completely original and new, while "kitsch" art is trying to make an appeal to a broad fanbase.
So in other words as furry fans exist, furry will alway probably be "kitsch" to "serious artists".
