Is there a canonical version/account of the idea that “the difference between craft and art is risk”? I’ve heard versions of this over the years but never thought to look for a specific source. I assume the risk meant is usually that of profaning sacredness. Is this right?

I think artistic sacredness is universally contaminated, although to vastly varying degrees. But I think this ideal is the one being referred to, yes.
