"New ideas might be conceived and developed more rapidly in disciplines that are more abstract.
The inductive methods of experimental innovators in painting makes their enterprise resemble the more empirical disciplines considered by psychologists, while the deductive approach of the conceptual innovators makes theirs resemble the more abstract disciplines."
David W. Galenson, "The Life Cycles of Modern Artists", NBER Working Paper Series, 2003.
Artists and architects have been at times captivated by visionary ideological viewpoints, which they used as inspiration and to offer suggestions for applications with their artworks and designs. My use of the diagram and the image aims to convey the simple message that art strives for evolution; meaning to strengthen the mind, to research capabilities, to communicate a disinterested, though not necessarily apolitical, view of social changes, to overcome banality and offer an alternative way of looking at the world. This motivation has traditionally often gone hand in hand with political goals and motivations.
