An Arising
"...Art is not
elaborate
technique, and art
is not the quest of
beauty. It is the
vanguard of life,
scouting,
pioneering,
reaching into the
unknown, into that
which is not yet
amenable to law. It
is the thrill of
wonder, the gaze
from a peak in
Darien, the road to
Xanudu, the dim
Ultima Thule, the
solemn joy of
voyaging through
strange seas of
thought alone. It is
a venture
beyond organized truth, beyond acknowledged virtue,
beyond recognized beauty, and ... beyond the dreary
dailiness which usurps the name of life. Art, thus interpreted,
spurns patterns, standards, values: words which of their very
nature are essentially philistine. Thus it cannot exist save for
its own sake only. Whoever looks primarily to the true, the
good, or the beautiful, with art merely as a mode of
approach, is turning his back on the reality of art."

"To arrest, for the
space of a breath, the
hands busy about the
work of the earth, and
compel men entranced
by the sight of distant
goals to glance for a
moment at the
surrounding vision of
form and colour; of
sunshine and shadows;
to make them pause
for a look, for a sigh,
for a smile -- such is
the aim, difficult and
evanescent, and
reserved only for a
very few to achieve.
But sometimes, by the
deserving and the
fortunate, even that
task is accomplished.
And when it is
accomplished --
behold! -- all the truth
of life is there: a
moment of vision, a
sigh, a smile -- and the
return to an eternal
rest."
Joseph Conrad
