M.A. Dworkin St. Croix - Great thinkers believe that art and love are profoundly intertwined, representing emotional expression, connection, and creation. “Art and love are the same thing: it’s the process of seeing yourself in things that are not you,” states cultural critic Chuck Klosterman. “In our life there is a single color, as on an artist’s palette, which provides the meaning of life and art.
