Pop and Flux Art

In David Hopkins, “Blurring Boundaries: pop Art, Fluxus and their Effects”; Hopkins states that “to retain their integrity, the arts had to protect themselves against the debased variants on their accomplishments that advanced capitalism generated for the mass” (Hopkins 95). How has capitalism made art generated for the mass today? Does this devalue art? Have the art movements of pop and flux ruined the integrity of art? If art is too available to the public is it then not important/ valuable?
