Famous quotes containing the word art:

    “She had some art of hearing and yet not
    Hearing the latter wisdom of the world.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “In most modern instances, interpretation amounts to the philistine refusal to leave the work of art alone. Real art has the capacity to make us nervous. By reducing the work of art to its content and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art. Interpretation makes art manageable, conformable.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “The art of the critic in a nutshell: to coin slogans without betraying ideas. The slogans of an inadequate criticism peddle ideas to fashion.”
    —Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
