Re-reading the last few posts I realize they are on the heavy side of life and art. What can I say? I do have a strong sense of responsibility and an above average sense of global scope that is not tempered by too much cynicism. I think people can make a difference and affect change. I think that more people working together to affect change have exponentially more ability then the individual.
I really admire guys like Chihuly who encourage teams of artists to work together to accomplish something. It is a rare thing to have artists working together. To work well, everyone needs to be humble. One of the few other places you see artist working together is on the movie set and sometimes on the TV lot. The horror stories form these places are when an actor goes all diva or a studio exec forces a vision based on money and not on truth, beauty, and art.
Personally, I would always rather work as a team then as the lone ranger. It may not be easier but it is ultimately better.
