The Real Being Of Language Is That

A Cultured Society That Has Fallen Away From Its Religious Traditions Expects More From Art Than The Aesthetic Consciousness And The 'standpoint Of Art' Can Deliver. The Romantic Desire For A New Mythology... Gives The Artist And His Task In The World The Consciousness Of A New Consecration. He Is Something Like A 'secular Saviour' For His Creations Are Expected To Achieve On A Small Scale The Propitiation Of Disaster For Which An Unsaved World Hopes.

The Essence Of The Question Is The Opening Up, And Keeping Open, Of Possibilities.

It Is The Tyranny Of Hidden Prejudices That Makes Us Deaf To What Speaks To Us In Tradition.

It Is One Of The Primary Motives Of Modern Art That It Wants To Abolish The Distance Which The Viewer, The Consumer, The Audience Maintain Vis-a-vis A Work Of Art. There Is No Doubt That The Leaders Of The Creative Artists Of The Last 50 Years Concentrated Their Efforts Mainly On Eliminating That Distance.

Being That Can Be Understood Is Language.
