Artists – the real architects of change?

It was once said, “Artists are the real architects of change, and not the political legislators who implement change after the fact.”
Given all the talk of change in the States, what’s your opinion of this quote? Do artists really fill the role ‘real architects of change’ and if so, what are you seeing to make you believe this?





I think some artists affect change, you know like influence through their art, but by and large, that’s probably not the case, which is unfortunate because it shouldn’t be that way. At least that’s what I see. Politicians just simply scare me.
