I love the point about commercial art helping us build a shared language. With your writing specifically (and the writing of some other folks I can think of), it's the thoughts you've shared about the commercial properties I know and recognize that intrigue me enough, and make me feel safe enough, to read your thoughts about art that I do not know about. And so I learn about art I wouldn't have otherwise encountered.
