All visual art speaks - sometimes in a voice stirred by passion or afloat with tenderness, sometimes in an angry shout, sometimes in a soft whisper. It may speak to the person viewing it, to the artists who share its time in history, or to those who will not come until much later. And its message may lie as much in what is not said as in what is. No matter what form visual art takes - as symbolic images carefully drawn on a cave wall, thick colorful oils on wood or canvas, cold stone carved and crafted into an intricate form, or tonal qualities of a single black-and-white photograph - a single constant remains: Art speaks, and to be able to understand its language is to be privy to an artistic conversation thousands of years old - a conversation that will lead you to a better understanding not only of art but also of the time in which it was created and the humans who created it.
