144"It is the artist, not the critic,* who gives society something of lasting value."
a person who evaluates works of art, such as novels, films, music, paintings, etc.

Owning to whose help, the artist or the critic let art works long lasting? The author claims that it is the artist who made the lasting value. To some extent, the artist uses their talents and imagination to create the immortal works. But without the work of the critic, it is difficult for artworks’ long lasting value in society. Therefore I believe they both make the value lasting.

Admittedly, without those talent artists, it is impossible for the existences of those miracle works in the world. Day after day, year after year, some great works always hinge in our heart from one generation to next generation. Mona Lisa, which was painted by Leonardo da Vinci, and her elegant smile are facsimiled by art students and artists all over the world during hundreds years as an excellent works no one could exceed in oil painting history. Beethoven, turbulence in his life including his incurable deaf at 29, used his passion to compose with universal values in music history using his optimism to inspire us especially during their down period. The great work "black and red" using its unimaginable magic makes thousands of readers, no matter young or older, tear for the misery destiny of majorities and their love. Those excellent works bring an world with longstanding values, whenever appreciate them, we always be moved by those values built by talents and endeavor hard works of artists. At this point, without the creativity work of artists, those values never can be born in this world not mention to their existences.

Reviewing the history of our human being, only those art works could be insistently appreciated, learning and used could be delivered down. Confronting with numerous art works, how to appreciate them and how to take advantage of them is a puzzle to us. Lacking excellent talents and profound insights, lots of art works are obscure to us. Sun flowers created by Van Gogh use dramatic contrast color to indicate the strong self-control interior world, at the same time with the choosing of those dying sun flowers showed that the author's disappointment to the outsider world. Without the help of critic and their deep knowledge, as outsiders, it is difficult for us to know such intrinsic meaning of Sun flowers. The critic who open the door of art world to us and can help public to appreciate art works，while helping them long lasting in the world.  Moreover, meeting with innumerous works it is impossible and no need for us to appreciate all art works. With the help of critics, we could use less time get more learning. Just as we want search about prehistory of China, what we should do it to search the articles of history critics, with their guide we can find the useful art work such as the Spring and Autumn for learning efficiently and directly.

From what has been discussed above, we can draw the conclusion that the artist creative the works, while that is the precondition of the lasting value, at the same, the critic help public learning to appreciate and use great art works, which help art works be appreciate, learned and exerting their values in a long run.
