In The Evolution Of Mankind

Art Is Always The Index Of Social Vitality, The Moving Finger That Records The Destiny Of A Civilization. A Wise Statesman Should Keep An Anxious Eye On This Graph, For It Is More Significant Than A Decline In Exports Or A Fall In The Value Of A Nation's Currency.

If The Individual Is A Unit In A Corporate Mass, His Life Is Not Merely Brutish And Short, But Dull And Mechanical.

These Are The Sensations And Feelings That Are Gradually Blunted By Education, Staled By Custom, Rejected In Favor Of Social Conformity.

In General, Modern Art... Has Been Inspired By A Natural Desire To Chart The Uncharted.

The Peculiarity Of Sculpture Is That It Creates A Three-dimensional Object In Space. Painting May Strive To Give On A Two-dimensional Plane, The Illusion Of Space, But It Is Space Itself As A Perceived Quantity That Becomes The Peculiar Concern Of The Sculptor. We May Say That For The Painter Space Is A Luxury; For The Sculptor It Is A Necessity.
