"What strikes me is the fact that in our society, art has become something which is only related to objects, and not to individuals, or to life."
- Michel Foucault
When Mr. McGinnis introduced me to Mickey 3d, I was instantly smitten. Searching around on YouTube, I found the video for La Mort du Peuple and went from smitten to spellbound. I recalled the first time I saw a collection of Diane Arbus portraits, and was reminded of a fact that is too often lost on us in our search for the sublime and the beautiful: Art lies not outside or within us; art is us.
