WHAT IS THE ROLE OF ART IN THE WORLD?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for July 01, 2008:

True art is the expression of that which most mere mortals care not to express; it is selfless, doing for us what we dare not do for ourselves, revealing who we are and what we believe in. All else is vanity and avarice masquerading as art in the name of self service. The challenge we face is attempting to discern the difference.

Competition is always valuable, which is to say it serves just as vital a purpose as any other form of human expression; it reveals the best in the worst and the worst in the best of us. It bids we travel paths we fear to tread and leads us to places we might never have known had we remained inert.
