Patrick Geddes: 我认为欣赏艺术并非少数人的特权，每个人都可以通过自己的视角解读艺术作品。在曼彻斯特展览会上，我观察到人们对同一幅画作的评价千差万别，这体现了人们对艺术理解和解读的差异性，甚至有些人对色彩的感知能力有限。一些观众对艺术作品的评价过于主观和武断，缺乏深入的观察和理解；一些观众只关注艺术作品的细枝末节，而忽略了作品的整体性和艺术性；一些观众的评价虽然涉及到绘画技巧，但却缺乏情感和艺术鉴赏力。大多数观众对艺术作品缺乏批判性思考，更多地关注作品的名称而非作品本身。人们对艺术的理解往往受到自身生活经验的限制。一些艺术家的作品在当时并未得到认可，是因为大众和评论家缺乏足够的理解和欣赏能力。艺术评论中存在很多混乱和误解，这反映在对艺术作品的解读和评价上。一些艺术评论并非真正的批判，而是对作品内容的简单解释和概括。一些艺术评论虽然敏锐，但对于初学者来说可能难以理解。艺术评论家往往更关注绘画技巧的某一方面，或偏向于某个特定流派。不同的艺术评论家对同一艺术家的评价存在差异，甚至相互矛盾。传统的艺术评论往往是收藏家和鉴赏家的呓语，对大众而言价值有限。需要不断尝试新的方法来普及和解释艺术。真正的艺术欣赏能够提升人们的生活体验。运用科学的分析方法，每个人都可以成为自己的艺术评论家。通过学习艺术，人们可以更好地欣赏生活中的美，并提升创造美的能力。
