Андрей Ярославцев - Можно ли одной исчерпывающей формулой - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

Is it possible to define what art is in one comprehensive formula? Of course not. Art is charm and sorcery, it is the revelation of the funny and the tragic, it is morality and immorality, it is the knowledge of the world and man. In art, man creates his own image as something separate, capable of existing outside of himself and remaining after him as his trace in history. The moment when man turns to creativity is perhaps the greatest discovery, unparalleled in history. After all, through art, each individual and the nation as a whole comprehends his own characteristics, his life, his place in the world. Art allows us to come into contact with individuals, nations and civilizations, distant from us in time and space. And not just come into contact, but to know and understand them, because the language of art is universal, and it is this that gives humanity the opportunity to feel itself as a single whole. That is why, since ancient times, an attitude has been formed towards art not as entertainment or fun, but as a powerful force capable of not only capturing the image of time and man, but also passing it on to descendants.
