:: The Art of Saving the World ::

Can we say any longer that the state of the world has no important bearing on the works of art that artist create, or that the several selves of an artist—or indeed of anyone—can be kept separate any more?

Art may never save the world, but saving is not the same as saying the phenomenon "world" itself, which is something art can do; art can help us recollect our belonging-ness to something precious and worthy of protection.
