Today's Proust. Art. Art is critical for Proust because it's the only thing that allows us to experience the worlds other people live. Art is considered 'subjective', but it's absolutely not. “Thanks to art, instead of seeing one world only, our own, we see that world multiply itself and we have at our disposal as many worlds as there are original artists, worlds more different one from the other than those which revolve in infinite space, worlds which, centuries after the extinction of the fire from which their light first emanated, whether it is called Rembrandt or Vermeer, send us still each one its special radiance.”
