Many works of art, products, and services can be sold both at the center and through creative use of the mass media. Art is now very expensive partly because it is sold in small volume. With better collective advertising and promotion, the cost can come down making it both more profitable for the artists and affordable for the public. It touches us deep inside in many ways. It may inspire love, insight, and beauty.
Inspirational artists are often visionaries of sorts.
They are inspired by some ideal, a possible reality of the future. Many such artists are very open to their own inner being and so express depth of insight which many do not see at first. For this reason, many great artists are not even recognized. Though we may not see the artists' insight at first, it can be like a seed within us that eventually grows and so becomes part of the keys to our own realizations. In this way, artists do a great service for humanity though they are rarely acknowledged.
