Decent engineering is always impressive - see anything by Kingrom BrunelBut this does not make it art.
The singular most impressive thing in the Tate (with one exception) is the gantry crane in the main hall. The one exception was that 'sun' setting into the mirrors of the roof. That was trés cool.
That means that the best thing in the Tate is not art. Oh, the irony.

Hmm,that depends - if Brunel had built Box tunnel just for it to be looked at then yes, it would be art.
