Of course, the artistic element is the main thing about it. Eurythmy represents a new art form and, as such, it will indeed be able to bear fruit in many ways that are being sought today by serious artists, but which are extraordinarily difficult to find. These are sought under the most diverse masks, expressionism and so on, which is always a kind of stammering because one initially works with inadequate materials or with inadequate means of expression. So the artistic element wants to have a fertilizing effect on the various longings that can be clearly perceived in artistic development today and allow a search to be perceived.
