'experiencer'
'audience'
'consumer'

and makes sense, as art, in its extreme, can be created by and for a single entity
'coartist' - as in 'codomain' for mathematical functions
alternatives could be
I don't like the distance that the word 'observer' suggests, but went with it
art can express the mode and feelings of the observer
