Artistic vision can transcend time and place from "summary" of Art and Culture by Clement Greenberg

Throughout history, certain artists have possessed a unique ability to create works that seem to exist outside of the constraints of time and place. These artists, through their artistic vision, are able to transcend the limitations of their environment and create works that speak to people across generations and cultures. Artistic vision, in its purest form, is not bound by the limitations of a specific time or place. It is a universal language that can communicate ideas and emotions that are timeless and universal. When an artist is able to tap into this universal language, their work has the power to resonate with people from all walks of life, regardless of when or where they live. This ability to transcend time and place is what sets truly great artists apart from the rest. While many artists are products of their time and place, the greatest among them are able to rise above these constraints and create works that have a lasting impact on humanity as a whole. In this sense, artistic vision can be seen as a kind of bridge between different eras and cultures. It allows us to connect with the thoughts and feelings of people who lived long before us, as well as those who will come long after we are gone. Through the power of artistic vision, we are able to see the world through the eyes of others, and to gain a deeper understanding of the human experience as a whole.
  1. It is this ability to transcend time and place that allows art to hold such a special place in human society. It is through art that we are able to connect with something greater than ourselves, and to gain a greater appreciation for the diversity and richness of the human experience.
