“From the artist there is no conscious effort to find universal truth or beauty, no effort to analyze other men’s minds in order to speak for them. His act in art is an act of personal conviction and identity.” sculptor, David Smith

The next generation will define the significant. The art of the present is always dynamic….it always help to prioritize contemporary work by having a thorough understanding of the art of the past… art is never created in a vacuum but clearly reflects/expresses the spirit of the present
