From a series called “Text Pieces” by Stefan Brüggemann, which I originally discovered here. Included: quotes about art that perhaps illuminate the _____ of art.
“The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.”
“The object of art is to give life a shape.”
“The principle of true art is not to portray, but to evoke.”
“The perfection of art is to conceal art.”
