Or  maybe I'm listening to too much opera, and seeing too  many heavy movies. But artists seem to revel in mixing beauty and pain. I figured that was not just an artist's trick, but a reflection of life. Something I've always wondered about: What happens to  art in a (hypothetical) Age of Enlightenment? Can you take pain and suffering and struggle out of the mixture and have art just be about joy? I had an artist friend from my MIU days who insisted that artists should only bring light, yeah. I don't know  what her position might be these days. Someone in Fairfield could ask her, maybe.
