abstract The author seeks out justifications for the work of contemporary Baha'i artists. She argues that now is the time for Baha'i artists to begin working towards the flowering of our civilization ; for art as a unifying force which can create links of understanding between believers ; that art, and poetry in particular, provide a means of approaching the spiritual or intellectual reality which underlies material existence.
