In my search for cover art for the spiritual manifesto mix I'm making, I found something adorable and dated hippie-cute, but also true.
the WHY CHEAP ART? manifesto
PEOPLE have been THINKING too long that ART is a PRIVILEGE of the MUSEUMS & of the RICH. ART IS NOT BUSINESS!
It does not belong to banks & fancy investors ART IS FOOD. You cant EAT it BUT it FEEDS you. Art has to be CHEAP and available to EVERYBODY. It needs to be EVERYWHERE because it is the INSIDE of the WORLD.
ART SOOTHES PAIN!
Art wakes up sleepers!
ART FIGHTS AGAINST WAR & STUPIDITY!
ART SINGS HALLELUJA!
ART IS FOR KITCHENS!
ART IS LIKE GOOD BREAD!
Art is like green trees!
Art is like white clouds in a blue sky!
ART IS CHEAP!
HURRAH!
