Kurt Vonnegut on the Role of Artists in Society
But I continue to think that artists — all artists — should be treasured as alarm systems.
”Two girls more engrossed with the air vent grate than the modern art on the walls of San Francisco Museum of Art, 1963”
Complexity of Art
“We live in hard times and people are in pain. Is that the best time for complex art? For me, the answer is always yes. Because I am complex. The situations we deal with are complex. If our art is to be true, it cannot be simple.” — @Mike_Eagle at #xoxofest— mb (@mb) September 8, 2018
On Art
some art heals. some art soothes. some art shouts and screams and yells. some art just tries to help the days go by a little faster. whatever it is you're making, it doesn't need to do everything. whatever art is moving you, allow it be what it needs to be. keep going.— jonny sun (@jonnysun) June 16, 2018
