Realist Art
I think I like this…
Socialist realist art must be faithful to life – but in certain prescribed ways:
- Art should picture reality in simplified and typified ways so that it communicates effectively to the masses.
- Art should picture life, but not as it is so much as life as it shouldbecome, life worth emulating.
- Art should picture reality not in its individuality but only as it reveals larger social significance.
- Art should picture reality as progress toward the future and so represent social struggles positively. It should carry an air of optimism.
- Art should focus on contemporary life, creating pleasing images of new social phenomena, revealing and endorsing new features of society and thus aiding the masses in assimilating them.
