Description

1. Helps us to relate (sympathise and identify) 2. Helps us to be balanced (concentrated dose of our missing virtues) 3. Can be used as propaganda (on behalf of the good) 4. Helps us to acknowledge the neglected value of the everyday (something that we've seen a thousand times, but never looked at properly) 5. Reminds us of important concepts (so that we don't forget) Do you believe in the art for art's sake? Does Alain de Botton present a correct purpose of art? Comment below. A talk by Alain de Botton. Animated by the "Human Being: User's Manual". Please support the project by sharing the video and subscribing.
