Expositions are the timekeepers of progress.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Exposition has legitimate uses. It's the most efficient way to summarize background information, including necessary information about a character's history. It can set the stage well for a major dramatized event.
Fundamental progress has to do with the reinterpretation of basic ideas.
At a certain time, an artist needs a big retrospective. At other times, they need a more focused exhibition. It's a different story each time; it's about establishing a dialogue.
Delay is the enemy of progress.
People have to find ways of explaining the work.
Timing has a lot to with art.
As the news agenda goes into warp speed, it becomes ever more difficult for authors writing about current events to keep their books timely and relevant.
At writing workshops, they taught us to show, not tell - well, showing takes time.
I'm an enemy of exposition. I feel there's no need to overstate.
There is sometimes a peculiar confusion in the West that equates progress to whatever is recent or whatever is new, and it is time we understood that progress has nothing to do with the chronology of an idea.
