The use of arts to “reflect, however inadequately, the Divine Spirit which Bahá'u'lláh has breathed into the world”

Although now is only the very beginning of Bahá'í art, yet the friends who feel they are gifted in such matters should endeavour to develop and cultivate their gifts and through their works to reflect, however inadequately, the Divine Spirit which Bahá'u'lláh has breathed into the world.

- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated 4 November 1937, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer; The Compilation of Compilations, vol. II, Music)
