Maybe we should clarify what we mean by "art" and "artist". For me, art refers to all kinds of art, not only the visual arts. And I think performers/interpreters like musicians, conductors and actors are artists, as well as directors and choreographers, of course. Do you agree?

I do indeed. when I want to refer to "art" in the narrow sense, I speak of sculpting or painting. even a writer is an artist, in a way. anything creative can be seen as a form of art. it is not for nothing that Joseph Beuys said: "every man is an artist" ("man" standing for "human being" here")

I read your post, clicked back and saw that you had posted a new one in the meantime. Was he born in 1900 or later?

I was sure it was Macchiavelli! Ok, British?

Nope, not British. I've hardly given any clues yet, what made you think it was him?

I have a strange feeling James picked the one that would be my chice (upon Friede's suggestion) next time it is my go, but we will see. did he die before he was 30?

Mentioning Macchiavelli was only a joke. Did he come from a Mediterranean country?

I doubt it's the same guy, Jean. This guy died aged 82 and he was not from a Mediterranean country either.
