The finished work of art must be re-created in the mind of its viewer for it to

function as a work of art. The viewer, in turn, collaborates with the artist in

imaginatively reconstructing the artist’s emotive and imaginative expression.

Thus, art is collaboration between artist and viewer. The viewer is not a passive

receptor of the artist’s emotion, but an active participant in creation. (K>!T][f
