Art should *not* be made accessible to the mainstream. Art is the antidote to the mainstream. Unless you are confusing art with marketing.

*but* a mainstream appreciation of art and for creativity to go mainstream generally would make the world a better place I think.

couldn't agree more, can't recall just now who said: Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable.

Normally I'm on par with everything you say and do, Paul. But I'd question that statement. Dealing with art is an important form of cultural and educational mediation, it promotes (critical) engagement with topics that transcend the banalities of everyday life. I would even say that it can help people learn to reflect on personal, societal and political changes and developments and at the same time promote emotionality and creativity. Art in general should not be something exclusive, reserved for and cultivated within a certain group. This may not be true for certain movements within the overall art spectrum, as they are often an identifier, outlet and catalyst for social exclusion and a means of expressing the struggle for recognition. So certain art forms and movements are definitely antidotes and their assimilation into mainstream culture is often purely superficial and meaningless, but "art" in general is not.
