Inspiring Art Quotes

Art, a book, a painting, a song, can definitely inspire change, whether it's a small change or a big change but you know there's novels I've read or a scene in a film that I've seen where I definitely inspired something and made a change or addressed an issue in my life or done something cliche like make a phone call. Rose Byrne
Inspiration in Science may have to do with ideas, but not in Art. In art it is in the senses that are instinctively responsive to the medium of expression. Arthur Erickson
Clive James quote: "Art is the outward integration inspired by the artist's inner..."

Harvey Fierstein quote: "Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate,..."
Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate. Harvey Fierstein
Well, Daddy, I used to believe that artists went crazy in the process of creating the beautiful works of art that kept society sane. Nowadays, though, artists make intentionally ugly art that’s only supposed to reflect society rather than inspire it. So I guess we’re all loony together now, loony rats in the shithouse of commercialism. Tom Robbins
Most artists are brought to their vocation when their own nascent gifts are awakened by the work of a master. That is to say, most artists are converted to art by art itself. Finding one's voice isn't just an emptying and purifying oneself of the words of others but an adopting and embracing of filiations, communities, and discourses. Inspiration could be called inhaling the memory of an act never experienced. Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void... Jonathan Lethem
Making art, good art, is always a struggle. It can make you happy when you pull it off. There's no better feeling. It's beauteous. But it's always about hard work and inspiration and sweat and good ideas. Damien Hirst
Ken Hill quote: "Music is an art form too. Sometimes other forms of art can be..."
Music is an art form too. Sometimes other forms of art can be inspiring to the musician. Ken Hill
John Lasseter quote: "The art challenges the technology, and the technology inspires..."
The art challenges the technology, and the technology inspires the art. John Lasseter
Edward Abbey quote: "All we have, it seems to me, is the beauty of art and nature..."
All we have, it seems to me, is the beauty of art and nature and life, and the love which that beauty inspires. Edward Abbey
CALIGULA: I'm the only true artist Rome has known - the only one, believe me - to match his inspiration with his deeds. CHEREA: That's only a matter of having the power. CALIGULA: Quite true. Other artists create to compensate for their lack of power. I don't need to make a work of art; I live it. Albert Camus
The following Discourse [on art, by Sir Joshua Reynolds] is particularly Interesting to Blockheads as it endeavours to prove that There is No such thing as Inspiration & that any Man of a plain Understanding may by Thieving from Others become a Mich Angelo. William Blake
And more even than the painter, the writer, in order to achieve volume and substance, in order to attain to generality and, so far as literature can, to reality, needs to have seen many churches in order to paint one church and for the portrayal of a single sentiment requires many individuals. For if art is long and life is short, we may on the other hand say that, if inspiration is short, the sentiments which it has to portray are not of much longer duration. It is our passions which draw... Marcel Proust
The art and passion of reading well and deeply is waning, but [Jane] Austen still inspires people to become fanatical readers. Harold Bloom
Do people choose the art that inspires them? do they think it over, decide they might prefer the fabulous to the real? For me, it was those early readings of fairy tales that made me who I was as a reader and, later on, as a storyteller. Alice Hoffman
