Art requires an audience that is able to understand. To enter the world of art, you must enter the world of each artist and the effort. Because access to one of the world does not absolve us of the work required to enter another. Any artist would revolt at the idea that his work is reduced by an uneducated public in producing a show that is subjective to false impressions. We must therefore reject the subjectivity of an amateur whose appreciation would be reduced to the alternative I like or dislike. It is essential to appreciate art, to know the difference between what is beautiful and what is pleasant.

Some works seem hermetic, it means you need to learn their language, like Australian art or even aboriginal artfor example. Many works are completely incomprehensible to the vast majority of the public. They do not bring them any pleasure simply because they have not learned to appreciate them. Although technical treatises and commentaries are not an end in itself, but they are the springboard without which the amateur will never be in a state conducive to the appreciation of a work of art. Taste is always judging, and if I want to judge an artist, one must first learn to understand their language and their world.

The taste is subjective and the natural ability that men have to distinguish the beautiful from the ugly. There is no need to be educated to understand that our love makes us appreciate.

The artwork is given to one who is immediately beautiful. The artwork is only what it is – the fruit of inspiration – and it is not necessary to go beyond it. The attitude of the amateur is reduced to a pure receptivity of feeling of pleasure or displeasure that the work provokes in him. It is totally unnecessary to use knowledge to appreciate the qualities or defects of a work.

Art has to be elitist to everyone; the ability to appreciate or reject! To subordinate the aesthetic taste of the culture is to give art a function of distinction of art would be restricted to certain social classes. It may be inaccessible to others, attendance at museums, concert halls becoming the mark of a certain social superiority. However, it is not inconceivable that one could love a concerto without knowing the music. We can say that the height of art is to be forgotten as art. There are no standards above the work, it is explained by itself.
