Answer:

There are many assumptions built into the initial statement that would need to be deconstructed before an answer becomes possible:

You assume that artists are seeking anything collectively. Some artists may seek to make works that last through the ages, but others use their art as therapy for themselves. Other artists enjoy the process, seeing it as a form of meditation, and may or may not ever show the work to anyone else. There is no unified purpose for art (or 'Art').

The word 'immortality' is laden with many assumptions and cultural weights. Are you proposing that the goal is to make themselves famous, that they wish their work to be famous (even if they themselves are forgotten), or some more literal version of immortality - as if part of them lives on in their work in a spiritual way? Many artists seek to create something that moves other people emotionally, and so art is (for them) a form of conversation in which they make a proposal or ask a question and it is up to the viewer to respond. The artist might be interested in that response, or may be only interested in making a statement.

As you say, when you mention 'grasp the moment', some art may only be intended to be relevant for a brief time, such as political protest art. Other art may only be a critique of art itself, and have no intended purpose outside of the artistic community that will be aware of it. The auto-destructive art movement or the Fluxus group could be examples of this.

You also assume there is 'no such thing' as immortality. In literal terms you are of course correct, but in social terms 'immortality' is rather different. If humans continue to exist, then the music of Mozart will probably be considered beautiful, or at least worthy of interest, for millennia to come. That music will likely exist independently of knowledge of Mozart's time and life and will be played by musicians for as long as we can predict. That is, in a very meaningful way, immortality for the work.

It is also arguable that all art is a self-portrait, because it is born from the mind of the creator, and so something of Mozart will exist for as long as we can imagine any descendant of ours to exist. That is also, in a very meaningful way, immortality for the creator.

You may disagree with these definitions of the terms that you have used, or intended them to be understood in a different way, but they are interrogations of the original question that can refine it. You assume many things to be true in your question, when those 'truths' themselves are a matter of perspective.
