Is painting dead?

Sometimes I wonder.
As a painter when I look about it feels that there is so much contrived art.
I ask myself what is left?
Then I came across this quote:

Maybe poets express more directly a sense of sympathy for other human beings. Painting is a little bit more of a retreat from human beings in real life; painting is more about the extreme moments when speech doesn't help anymore. (Francesco Clemente)
