“Art has the capacity to be both a record of its time and an expression of universal human values. These values can be related to many sources: individual and group identities; ethical, religious and political systems; and the experiences of sexually and gender in addition to aesthetic values. An orientation toward art as a record of its time means taking a cultural approach to art. But we can also respond to art as expressive of universal human values not tied to any particular place”. -Steven M Leuthold 69
