Art and revolution. Writings on Literatura

"Art, like science, not only does not seek orders, but by its very essence, cannot tolerate them. Artistic creation has its laws, even when it consciously serves a social movement. Truly intellectual creation is incompatible with lies, hypocrisy and the spirit of conformity. Art can become a strong ally of revolution only insofar as it remains faithful to itself."
Leon Trotsky, 1938
