Art & Politics
“An art without an ideological function in spite of genius of its creator- or more specifically its maker- changes the artist progressively and inevitably into a juggle for the society of ‘ladies and gentlemen’ in as much as the generator governs the force of the current”
“ Liberalism transformed the private forms that were complementary, into special forms almost excessively used for the pleasure of society.
It substituted the wealthy gentleman, the art market that before belonged to the state that is to, to the masses. There one must localize the source of transformation from the traditionally social art into an art for society, into an art which is aesthetic compliment to the furnishings in the private home of the wealthy elite. And there is no man, however genial he may be, who can escape the reality sooner or later.”
