That culture can support us in our life
Which argues for the particular utility for art as a source of help with our problems our inner most problems, the problems of the soul if you like
and in a way its arguing that art can be a form of self help
and that there is nothing demeaning about the concept of self help
I think there is nothing wrong with the art that is being produced in this country
its not the art that is the problem, its the frame around the art
we are simply not encouraged to bring ourselves to works of art and for that reason many a museum or a gallery visit goes off at half-cock
but as we descend the white was gallery steps, their might be a sense of puzzlement
