YES, YOU MAY BE...
A bit puzzled by the SEEMINGLY ODD world of Arts and Culture...
Well, the etymologic meaning of art leads us onto a stunning new path: the word comes for the latin base of "ars" which meant ' to put together, to join' . TO JOIN?
Art is thus uniting, reconciling opposites, opening the field of possibilities.
So, if you are bewildered by the complexities of Art and its exotic language, don't remain in darkness and confusion!
The Wittyscope is there to give you some clues, offering new lines of thought to lighten up and expand your understanding of our cultural world today and its challenges, focusing on its real Lights and Beauties.
The Wittyscope is like a Treasure chest filled with a highly personal sampling of cultural delicacies: Articles, videos, editorials, quotes, diagrams, Artworks, a multicoloured Cabinet of Curiosities that aims to guide you to change perspective, a new, somewhat quirky but always gentle perspective.
I wish you to enjoy the reading, the questioning on the way and the open-mindness process ...
However, remember as Dear Terry Pratchett once said " The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it".
Kind Regards,
Laure
