What we do is look for high standards of excellence in the arts.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The importance of the arts to the societies in which they thrive is well documented.
I have long been interested in exploring and advancing the valuable relationships between the arts and society.
As the unity of the modern world becomes increasingly a technological rather than a social affair, the techniques of the arts provide the most valuable means of insight into the real direction of our own collective purposes.
To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.
The arts capture our insecurities, quicken our instincts, guide us through threats. They help us know ourselves. They help us know each other. They help us know better.
Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way.
Exposure to the arts and culture is enormously valuable.
There's an audience for all kinds of great art.
I don't think there should be a hierarchy of what is valid in the arts.
Awards for arts, where you make comparisons, don't make much sense.
