    In his preface‚ Oscar Wild dare to say that art is quite useless. "What do you mean art is useless?" was the first thing that came in my mind‚ "but art has so much meaning: it elevates our awareness of things‚ questions everything‚ contextualizes and re-contextualizes ideas‚ sharpens our appreciation for beauty‚ thought‚ and skill‚ it can define cultures‚ and is able to capture the essence and spirit of the time in which it’s made".
