I think you're describing a consumer's approach to art (not in a derogatory sense, mind you; by consumer I mean just that - someone observing a piece of art rather than creating it). Delving into the details and technicalities behind a piece of art will usually do little to increase the enjoyment you receive from it, in fact some people (myself included) would argue that this would ruin the experience.

But among creators of art, analysis holds a high and rightfully deserved place. There is tons of theory going into the creation of both visual art and music. In some way, with how much artists and musicians know about their medium, analysis is unavoidable. Understanding exactly what makes you love a painting or a musical piece helps you become a better creator yourself.
