Unlocking Gates

Another art season looms and we start to think about the "who" and "when" of artists and their shows; the nuts and bolts of a commercial enterprise selling art. 
However, I've always enjoyed a different reason for doing what we do, because I firmly believe  outstanding art can actually change people's perceptions of the world. 
At its best, this art serves as a key to worlds beyond our corporeal senses and we keep looking for those magic keys because locked gates are everywhere.
