Thinking about Law
All day, I have been diligently studying my law stuff, and thus far, the closest I can come to describing law as it relates to art this week is like listening to a record stuck on the 3rd note of Felix Mendelssohn’s overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream (hint: that note ain’t exactly dreamy, but instead screams for relief)….but I just read one view of the common law by Alfred Knight that says lawyers and judges are a “breed of artists painting on living canvases.” Hmm…that’s a little deep…and WAY too deep for someone who has been studying jurisdiction and venue all day…
