The art we love mutates and transforms with us. On most New Year’s Eve’s I ruminate with the books, the music, the poetry, and the movies I love. This year, as I re-read a beloved poem, it sprang a pleasant surprise on me, compelling me to write this post.
At the heart of good marketing and marketing communication is a grasp of the gestalt. Of what is and what is likely to happen in the broader world of human lives and society. And good art – both the fine and the popular kind – offers us glimpses into this gestalt that while resonating with our own experience allow us to go deeper and wider in our perception of world. In this “review” series of posts I offer my brief takes on books, movies and television that I have liked and which in some way inform and further my practice as a professional strategist.
