Thought provoking essay: "All in all, the creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualification and thus adds his contribution to the creative act.

December 2004 article about creativity: "These days, there's hardly a mission statement that doesn't herald it, or a CEO who doesn't laud it.

Where do breakthrough ideas come from? What kind of work environment allows them to flourish? What can leaders do to sustain the stimulants to creativity -- and break through the barriers?"
