Che Guevara on Art
*********************
"The monopoly capitalists -
even while employing purely
empirical methods -
weave around art
a complicated web
which converts it
into a willing tool.
The superstructure of society
ordains the type of art
in which the artist
has to be educated.
Rebels are subdued
by its machinery
and only rare talents
may create their own work.
The rest become
shameless hacks
or are crushed."
- Che Guevara
