I'd say it depends. For me art is as much about the artist behind a specific piece as it is about the actual piece. I agree with the person you responded to. I want human feelings in my art, no matter how abstract, for it to truly speak to me!

The synthesis of the indigo color wiped out an entire monopoly. Before the German chemist Adolf von Baeyer the market relied heavily upon the import of natural indigo from India whom basically got wiped off the market in one season. In yet another David vs. Goliath display of how the balancing of the market works in action a monopoly fell. Simultaneously a new market got born; namely the blue (indigo) jeans market. If you ever doubt that the market can handle the advent of monopolies - look no further than the pants you’re wearing!
