I definitely believe that art – visual art and all other art forms — can and does teach and inspire
I do not have a clue as to how you came to the idea that I think or believe otherwise.

So you don’t think one can teach and inspire thru painting and sculpture… I almost feel sorry for you. You just have a week mind for the visual medium that’s all. It’s like me saying that writers, comedians and musicians are lesser artists because they think they are so important that they have something to teach and tell others that they don’t allready know… mostly people with stagneted emotional lifes. Well your degrading it aswell. Let’s just enjoy it for what it is.

I do not think what you call art is really art. Painters and sculpturers are a lesser artist. They may capture the essence of an emotion or feeling, that a rich person is willng to pay a lot for but real artists are: a person that uses their skills to teach, inspire, or help a person find deeper meaning in their own emotions or life. This is mostly writers, comedians, and musicians. I apologize for sounding antagonistic but the degradation of the word art is a sore spot for me.
