Micky Donnelly Proposition #10 2008/2010 Oil on Fabric on Canvas
“Art discovers its true social use, not on the ideological plane, but by opening the passage from feeling to meaning – not for everyone, since that would be impossible, but for those who want to try. This impulse seems to be immortal. Certainly it has existed from the origins of human society, and despite the appalling commercialisation of the art world, its flight into corporate ethics and strategies, and its gradual evacuation of spirit, it exists today.”
Robert Hughes from The Shock of the New
