But if art symbolizes the dreams of society, it is technology that allows us to fashion them. We are poised at the beginning scenes of a new tapestry. The threads of the new design are computer chips and telecommunication satellites. And with them we are weaving a global culture. We have shaped a revolution and it in turn is shaping us.
Diversity is a critical feature of fine tapestry.
The different threads and colours and patterns intertwine to produce an integrated whole. In IFUW we have the different threads, colours and patterns and yet we can and should be able to be an integrated whole working for the same goals. We know increasing membership is a top priority in the years ahead. If we believe in ourselves, have a focused relevant programme, we should be able to attract and keep members - especially young members. We have the new Membership Guide - let's use it.
