on a related note--it seems to me that Art is talking about the experience of creating art, and how the creative force gets muddled if you're influenced by old artists, rather than life itself. one could also say that scientists shouldn't bother studying the works of older scientists, because it would hamper their ability to come up with creative ideas. art is more than creative ideas--there's technical knowledge associated with all arts that allow people to express themselves better. the destruction of old art also means the loss of techique knowledge.
