The Life of ART
from Failing Up · host Timothy Mahar
Art began as an accidental theme in my life back in high school when chose it as a major. Little did I know the important role it would play in my life, through college and into my professional career. I was fortunate to have leadership roles at Syracuse University at the College of Visual and Performing Arts and Alumni Office that involved the arts. I was in a similar role at Cornell University at the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning, and have spent over 30 years performing and teaching improv. We need art in all it's forms, especially now to live. It is like breathing, you don't think about it until you need to. With constant restraints and restrictions trying to be force on us. Art is our true freedom in all its forms. You cannot restrict imagination and creativity. "I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important then knowledge. Knowledge is limited imagination encircles the world." Albert Einstein. 1929 Saturday Evening Post interview. timothymahar.org
