"Music is the greatest communication in the world."
- Lou Rawls
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
- Aristotle
From performing arts to visual arts, here you will find references, guides, critiques, and how-to books that cover the spectrum from music to painting, sculpture to origami, and other artistic endeavors of human expression. As Andre Malraux said, "An art book is a museum without walls."
