 Cover Story    June 2013 (ARTCO, No. 249)

 

"The Modernists generally saw the world as devoid of inherent significance.

 

For them, the task of the artist was not to discover a preexistent meaning,

 

but to create a new meaning out of the chaos and anarchy of actual modern life."

"Art becomes one of the, if not the, paradigm medium in which we express,

 

hence define, hence realize ourselves."
