"THE NARRATIVE OF AESTHETIC REDEMPTION ASSURES US THAT SOONER OR LATER WE WILL SEE ALL ART AS BEAUTIFUL, HOWEVER UGLY IT APPEARED AT FIRST. TRY TO SEE THIS AS BEAUTIFUL! BECOMES A SORT OF IMPERATIVE FOR THOSE WHO LOOK AT ART THAT DOES NOT INITIALLY APPEAR BEAUTIFUL AT ALL.."
ARTHUR C. DANTO "THE ABUSE OF BEAUTY"
