Art Quote by Frank Fairfield

“There's this food that's evolved over thousands of years and people have made their own kind of thing, but it's not art-food, yet. It can be, but it's just food. It's the thing that people do because they have to, because they need it. I feel music is one of those things, too.” quote by Frank Fairfield — Download Open image
