After reading this piece, I think I agree more with Einstein's point of view than Benjamin's. I think that art allows us to see the world from a new perspective and to think more creatively as a result. In terms of the reproduction of art, I think that it allows people who might not ever get the chance to travel and see an original piece in person, the chance to experience the work and ultimately derive meaning from it. If art creates culture and perspective, then the reproduction of art is a good thing because it encourages change in society.
