Julian Barnes Quote
L’arte appartiene a tutti e a nessuno. L’arte appartiene a tutti i tempi e a nessun tempo in particolare. L’arte appartiene a chi la produce e a chi l’assapora. L’arte non appartiene più al Popolo e al Partito di quanto una volta non appartenesse all’aristocrazia e ai mecenati. L’arte è il mormorio della storia, udibile al di là del rumore del tempo. L’arte non esiste per sé: esiste per il pubblico.
