If art doesn't make us better, then what on earth is it for?

  1. Ooh. Interesting quote. I guess it depends on your definition of making us better. I don't want art with a lesson, but I do want art that connects with me and makes me think about something new or in a new way. Or just makes me sigh with contentment, happiness, or sadness.

    That's the key, Laura! Art touches or changes us.
