“Art becomes significant because it is able to hold the power to express important things that would most likely remain unstated in any other form of communication. This force of expression is found in the supreme monuments of our time, the icons that represent greatness of modern art works that have been able to continue and triumph over the fashionable animosity that greeted their first appearance. Great art can stand-alone and directly speak to the on-looking viewer, in spite of how we or other writers may choose to explain it.”
