Art Quotes
“Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it 'the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul.' The mere imitation, however accurate, of what is in Nature, entitles no man to the sacred name of 'Artist.'”
“Fashion is only the attempt to realize art in living forms and social intercourse.”
-- Francis Bacon
“Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.”
-- Dwight D. Eisenhower
“We're all entitled to opinions about how art institutions should behave, and entitled to voicing those opinions through whatever means available to us. We're also allowed to change or modify our opinions.”
-- Jerry Saltz
