According to Pinsky, babies begin to make sounds similar to language they hear within a few weeks of birth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy conclusion is art and poetry are not at the fringes of human intelligence and society, but at the center of the evolution of our intelligence,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Pinsky said Americans are less interested in art because there is not much support for it in our culture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are without the two great supports that traditionally support the arts. First, there is no class to be the caretaker of art. The other support is a folk culture. Children used to learn the poems and music from their grandparents, but that\u2019s no longer true,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the absence of the aristocratic and folk caretakers of art, we improvise and put a tremendous pressure on schools. School take more of the burden,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>In his talk, Pinsky shared videos from what he called \u201chis own improvisation of the caretaking of art,\u201d his Favorite Poem Project. The project is dedicated to celebrating, documenting and encouraging poetry\u2019s role in Americans\u2019 lives. The project, in which thousands of Americans of varying backgrounds, ages, and from every state, shared their favorite poems.<\/p>\n<p>After showing a video of a construction worker from Massachusetts reciting his favorite poem, Pinsky explained the importance of poetry to people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When he is reading a poem to you, it has a different kind of power. You see the work of art taking place in him. A poem is something that happens, like a piece of music. It happens any time anyone chooses to say it. I believe it speaks to something that goes very deep in us, something primary and essential,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Though his project has reached many people, Pinsky dismisses the notion that he is promoting poetry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo me, poetry is too large and fundamental to be sold like a brand of soap. Poetry is a basic art. A poem is primarily something that moves you. I feel like the videos demonstrate that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2012\/02\/P1100180.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"203\" data-attachment-id=\"6368\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2012\/02\/robert-pinsky-urges-more-arts-education-and-appreciation\/p1100180\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2012\/02\/P1100180.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1280,868\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;DMC-FZ5&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1328616842&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;6&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"P1100180\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Dr. Pinsky with UTC students&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2012\/02\/P1100180-1024x694.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6368\" src=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2012\/02\/P1100180-300x203.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\"style=\"max-width: 100%;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2012\/02\/P1100180-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2012\/02\/P1100180-1024x694.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2012\/02\/P1100180.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Earlier in the day, Pinsky met with UTC students for a question and answer session on poetry and creative writing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe seemed really happy to meet with us and was very forthright with answering all our questions,\u201d Iris Mahan, UTC student, said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy favorite thing that he said was \u2018failure and rejection is life.
