The artist is an exalted craftsman. By the grace of Heaven
and in rare moments of inspiration which transcend thewill, art
may unconsciously blossom from the labour of hishand, but a base in
handicrafts is essential to every artist.It is there that the
original source of creativity lies.
Walter Gropius, 1919
