John Dewey wrote that "Philosophy recovers itself when it ceases to be a device for dealing with the problems of philosophers and becomes a method, cultivated by philosophers for dealing with the problems of men."
What happens when we substitute art and artists for philosophy... Art recovers itself when it ceases to be a device for dealing with the problems of artists and becomes a method, cultivated by artists, for dealing with the problems of people.
Are we at a point, culturally, where this idea resonates?
