The new Era of Art
"Design is art to the second power. One must multiply aesthetics with purpose. In doing so, it transcends the dimension of art. Art practices aesthetics for the sake of aesthetics. It is one-dimensional."
"Even great quotes from great personalities like Otl Aicher must face the harsh reality of the new era of entertainment art. They become obsolete, as they come from a time when there was hardly anything between black and white. Today, 'perspective' and 'position' are dynamic values. I would even argue that the value almost holds a kind of superposition. Because we live in the age of shades of gray and are only partially able to differentiate certain shades of gray. So one can say that many values today are both good and bad at the same time. I therefore call this new era; The Era of Quantum Entertainment Art. With all its eternally fleeting transience and admirably repulsive and ugly beauty."
