"Third, abstract art offers a counter to our society's glut of things. An abstract painting is itself a thing, of course, a part of the material world. But it reminds people of a world without things. It suggest the old idea, now barely remembered, that there might be a hidden, underlying order, which the transience of life's things can't affect."
