Brothers and sisters in art, art is our religion. We worship at the altar of art. Like other religions, we welcome others with the gift of bread and wine. But for us, this gift of bread and wine is not a sacrament, it is an enticement. It is a distraction. It is the very thing that keeps them from the art. A token "good job" or "nice work" and it's off to drink alcohol and gossip, token attention paid.
What is the feast that brings them to the altar. It must be the art. The art itself. That is where the sacrament is.
