Per son To Person
“All works of art are, primarily, personal utterances addressed to others as persons. An artist attempts to embody in an object what he has been permitted to see of the world from his unique perspective; and what his work ‘means,’ be it a poem, a painting, or a symphony, is the outcome of a dialogue between the work and whoever is reading, looking at, or listening to it Not only is every work of art unique, but its significance is unique for each person who responds to it”—The poet W. H. Auden in a 8.8. C. talk about tradition and the new.
