I found exactly what I was looking for. I'm not sure if I'm reading too much into this essay, but it says so very much to me. It really made me think. For me, "elsewhere" seems to be the code word for something else. I wish I could talk to the writer about it -so, the least I thought I'd do is leave a comment. I thought this was brilliant. I hope you're well. I stumbled upon this essay very randomly, as I was searching for something odd yet in particular. I found exactly what I was looking for.

]]> Comment on Who’s Afraid of Conceptual Art? by A. E. De Ellendeh http://www.quodlibetica.com/who%e2%80%99s-afraid-of-conceptual-art/comment-page-1/#comment-448 A. E. De Ellendeh Tue, 06 Dec 2011 17:10:58 +0000 http://www.quodlibetica.com/?p=792#comment-448 The idea that Frederick Leighton, William Blake, Herbert Draper, Jean Delville be walking among us, or for that matter Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Raphael, Mucha, and see this world as it is, would indignate and shock them. Surely you do not find that just objected by the idea that: "those artists just liked some attention to themselves." I don't agree with the idea that a classic art would be deemed conservative; it is actually the mere idea of the "new" that needs an infinite repeat, we need a new tooth paste, a new beverage, a new hype. "New" is not a real entity, not a real content, the idea conservative does not exist. Surely you will not call Sade a conservative, or Rops, or decadents and symbolists. If classicists were working today they would do much more orgies, provocative scenes, I mean they always did. It's just that everyone is educating and living in a big plastic mess of souvenirs.
