It contrasts with services and activities such as administration that do not themselves result in any tangible material product.

    Style [is] the hallmark of a temperament stamped on the material in hand.
    André Maurois (1885–1967)

    The product of the artist has become less important than the fact of the artist. We wish to absorb this person. We wish to devour someone who has experienced the tragic. In our society this person is much more important than anything he might create.
