Art in the hands of artisans
Reading interviews of movie business 'creatives' in a trade magazine -- their names withheld -- and their positive and negative commentary of studio executives, I resolve this:
Never throw invective at someone who dominated you. It's weak.
Also, know that the corporate stranglehold on our public art may never loosen -- but it will break.
Art is sacred. It is not a business. It was sacred before the Enlightenment. And to the sacred it will return. Transcending and including all the bitter lessons of polarizing, destructive, competitiveness. Transcending and including the rapid developments that greed sometimes made manifest. Transcending and including all that has passed.
We need not retreat to caves and campfires. But Art is being returned to artisans.
No one dominates me. I will complain about no one's treatment of me. Because he is I. And I am I, and we are I.
This is not just something I read out of a book. This is something I've experienced. But who to tell.
