RE: Gnostic side of the artistic content
Ehhhh @godflesh! You have a way with deep thinking!
The content of the art includes dual knowledge - knowledge of the world and self-knowledge of the artist.
True. Both are necessary in giving an artist the complete self-fulfilling satisfaction of expressing his inward self, while at the same time reflecting, and giving meaning to the world view.
The artist is not merely a reporter who writes or paints things the way they are, he reveals their meaning, and raises otherwise trivial daily matters of the age into universal significance.
That comes not just from knowledge of the world, but also from an artists self-knowledge.
You say it all too well. And honest to say, i admire your 'deep thinking'.
Thanks for the comment :)
Well, yes both are necessary but for my subjective taste I prefer much more the path of slef-knowledge then the knowledge to the world.... but the both side valuable. :)
That i much i respect @godflesh. I am taking a keen follow of your discourses. I admire deep thought works. Yours are no less.

True.
