I like how art can mean so many different things and can affect us in different ways. Today’s quotations continue along this theme.
Art should be something like a good armchair in which to rest from physical fatigue. – Henri Matisse
The aim of art is not to represent the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance. – Aristotle
Art is an international language, understood by all. – Igor Babailov
Art is both creation and recreation. – Lin Yutang
Art thaws even the frozen, darkened soul, opening it to lofty spiritual experience. – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Do you agree with these ideas? Feel free to respond in the comments.
Igor Babailov
Art is the expression of the soul when words can’t be found.
Thank you for your comment, Honey. I like how I can express my soul through creating art, as well as enjoy the wordless expression of the art of others. What are you creating these days?
