That's up to you. Over time you grow to understand exactly what aspects of a piece of art resonate with you through sheer virtue of the volume of art you encounter. Your taste becomes unique, nuanced and reflective of your personality.
Through identifying what elements please you, you will be able to determine if a piece of art handles those elements in a satisfying manner. You will then judge it based upon your tastes and your tastes alone, regardless of the general consensus on these things.
Or you'll just ask other people how you should feel and go with that. Whatever.
