“The artist has some internal experience that produces a poem, a painting, a piece of music. Spectators submit themselves to the work, which generates an inner experience for them. But historically it's a very new, not to mention vulgar, idea that the spectator's experience should be identical to, or even have anything to do with, the artist's. That idea comes from an over-industrialized society which has learned to distrust magic.” ShouldArtIdeasArtistPiecesMagicProducePaintingInternalsSubmitVulgarDistrustSpectatorsIdentical Author:Samuel R.
