One should therefore not say that eurythmy can only be understood when everything can be related to poetry or music. That is not the case. Art must have an immediate effect. It must affect the feelings. And so here too it depends on the roundness or angularity of the form, on the emergence of one form from another, on what is revealed in the movements in the immediate artistic enjoyment. Nothing speculative, nothing intellectual should actually enter into eurythmy.
