“There is a case for saying that the creation of new aesthetic forms has been the most fundamentally productive of all forms of human activity. Whoever creates new artistic conventions has found methods of interchange between people about matters which were incommunicable before. The capacity to do this has been the basis of the whole of human history.” PeopleHumansHas BeensMatterWholeFormFoundCasesCreationActivityCapacityBasesMethodArtisticProductiveConventionsAestheticOriginalityHuman HistoryHuman ActivityInterchange Author:John Zachary Young
“Art is not and never has been subordinate to moral values. Moral values are social values; aesthetic values are human values. Morality seeks to restrain the feelings; art seeks to define them by externalizing them, by giving them significant form. Morality has only one aim - the ideal good; art has quite another aim - the objective truth... art never changes.” GivingHumansHas BeensArtFeelingsFormValuesSocialMoralMoralityArt IsIdealsAimSignificantObjectivesAestheticNever ChangeSubordinatesGood ArtHuman ValuesMoral ValuesObjective TruthSocial Values Author:Herbert Read
