What It Means To Be An Artist

John Dewey

“The function of art has always been to break through the crust of conventionalized and routine consciousness… Artists have always been the real purveyors of news, for it is not the outward happening in itself which is new, but the kindling by it of emotion, perception, and appreciation.”

That’s John Dewey. Written 1927.

Can’t say it’s changed in the last 87 years. Can you?
