Fame

The reality is that most serious artists will never achieve widespread fame. But that’s okay because fame should not be the primary mover. Fame is fickle, often transient, dependent on the openness of the culture and not a very reliable measure of artistic excellence.

Rather, the artist should discover some fragment of the complexity or mystery in the world and its humanity and commit to bringing it to light and working to unravel it.
