so may we not visualize the last "great artist" in the year 2100, work–
ing alone? He has developed to the full a subjective technique for
saying what he wants to say, and he works with
all
the
elan
of the
greatest masters. But he alone understands his technique and he alone
understands what he is saying. To the world his work is a meaning–
less arrangement of words, lines, or colors. This is a caricature, but
does it not hint at something in the awkward situation?
