Now that is a *deep* question ... with no one good answer. I've even heard 'professional team sports' described as an art form. [I hope you'll pardon my near-allergic reaction, as I view team sports as being on a par with country & western music (flush it), and for very similar reasons.]
As for "auto-biographical" ... if one can describe [conventional] art as being a reflection of the art-creator's history, that might make sense -- at least in an unconscious or subconscious way. Consciously? Only if the artist were rather narcissistic (I think ... er ... hope).
