A fable is a fictitious tale, perhaps conveying a moral lesson. Some stories and scientific research describe that the more narcissistic an artist is the more recognized their work becomes. Is this egotistical celebrity necessary to be celebrated in one’s artistic career, or is the quality and message of an artist’s work enough to resonate in the world? When an art-goer departs the moment, they are left with a fable through which they describe their ideas and opinions on the art they witnessed. Is this a narcissistic act to place oneself in the image of the artist or a pathway into understanding the work?
