A Major Mistake of These Artists…

A major mistake of these artists who want to create works of “national importance” is that, by focusing on a supposedly comprehensive theme, they forget that, in order for it to be truly comprehensive, the best test is to ensure its relevance on a personal level. Failing to realize this, they fall into an artificiality that is the natural result when one does not understand the real importance of things. The work, therefore, conceived to be comprehensive, ends up detached from reality—or, more simply, irrelevant.
