Audrey Flack: Leonardo's Lady

CREDO
I believe in art.
I do not believe in the “Art World” as it is today.
I do not believe in art as a commodity.
Great art is in exquisite balance.
It is Restorative.
I believe in the Energy of art,
and through the the use of that energy,
the artists ability to transform his or her life,
and by example, the lives of others.
I believe that through our art,
and through the projection
of transcended imagery,
we can mend and heal the planet.
- From Commencement address at The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, May 1974
