Reviews

[Rodrigo Jiménez]

"Al permitir la búsqueda y expresión de los propios sentimientos y la exploración de los de los demás las artes amplían la conciencia de lo que significa ser humano".

Un ensayo muy interesante, si bien demasiado introductorio, que aporta una visión novedosa del origen evolutivo del arte.
