Pope Benedict XVI

Restrictions:
All entries must be original. Copyrighted law will be strictly adhered to. Hand copies of existing art will be admitted solely at the discretion of the judges. Class studies will not be accepted.
Art is elemental.
Reason alone,
as it's expressed
in the sciences,
can't be man's complete answer to reality,
and it can't express everything that man can,
wants to,
and has to express.
I think God built this
into man.
Art,
along with science,
is the highest gift
God has given him.
Pope Benedict XVI
Removal:
Once displayed, artwork may not be removed from the exhibition until its conclusion.
