Horst Liepolt - Social Matters and Interests

Social Matters and Interests

Horst Liepolt lives in New York City with his wife Clarita. He has mostly retired from jazz production and now spends a lot of his time in abstract painting, much of it being for his ongoing series "Jazz – From the Inside Looking Out."

Some of his paintings are exhibited at the Ward-Nasse Art Gallery in New York and a number of them have been used for CDs, album covers and posters.

Famous quotes containing the words social, matters and/or interests:

    Any one who knows what the worth of family affection is among the lower classes, and who has seen the array of little portraits stuck over a labourer’s fireplace ... will perhaps feel with me that in counteracting the tendencies, social and industrial, which every day are sapping the healthier family affections, the sixpenny photograph is doing more for the poor than all the philanthropists in the world.
    Macmillan’s Magazine (London, September 1871)

    It matters not how a man dies, but how he lives. The act of dying is not of importance, it lasts so short a time.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    The essence of the modern state is that the universal be bound up with the complete freedom of its particular members and with private well-being, that thus the interests of family and civil society must concentrate themselves on the state.... It is only when both these moments subsist in their strength that the state can be regarded as articulated and genuinely organized.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
