Art and Beauty Beauty is truth, truth beauty, that is all Ye know on Earth, and all ye need to know - John Keats

The Divine Proportion The Vitruvian Man- Leonardo da Vinci (1490)

Significant Form I do not disbelieve in absolute beauty any more than I disbelieve in absolute truth. On the contrary, I gladly suppose that the proposition- this object must either be beautiful or not beautiful- is absolutely true. Only, can we recognise it? Certainly, at moments we believe we can...Every now and then the beauty, the bald miracle, the ‘significant’ form...of a picture, a poem or a piece of music, springs from an unexpected quarter and lays us flat...When we have picked ourselves up we begin to suppose that such a state of mind must have been caused by something of which the...value was absolute. ‘This’, we say, ‘is absolute beauty’. Perhaps it is. - Clive Bell- Art

The Purposes of Art

All art is completely useless- Oscar Wilde

Art as education Art can amplify man’s short time on this earth by enabling him to receive from another the whole range of someone else’s lifelong experiences with all their problems, colours and flavours. Art recreates in flesh experiences that have been lived by other men, and enables people to absorb them as if they were their own. - Alexander Solzhenitsyn
