A Little Book about Art: Quotes for the Aesthete in Your Life
"Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable..." - Cesar A. Cruz
Across the centuries, art has held up a mirror to humanity's evolving culture and creativity. Ancient civilizations left us mysterious sculptures while Renaissance artists produced iconic masterpieces. The Impressionists captured fleeting moments of beauty, while the Surrealists explored dreams and the subconscious. In recent decades, artists such as Frida Kahlo, Jackson Pollock and Banksy have embraced new mediums and pushed artistic boundaries even further.
Brimming with fabulous quotes, this little book offers a window into the minds of some of the world's most admired artists and thinkers - and is a vibrant celebration of the evolution of art through the ages.
"Life is art. Art is life. I never separate it." - Ai Weiwei
