:50:03
instead of the stereotyped, soulless
physiognomies, all looking alike?
:50:07
Why can't we paint
a toiling woman as a Madonna?
:50:13
What could be more beautiful than
a working person? Nothing!
:50:18
Although you'll have a lot of
antagonists, isn't it so, Yelena?
:50:23
Of course, it's absolutely true.
:50:25
They will say:
''What do we need this art for?
:50:28
This is just chamber art,
fit for a boudoir.
:50:32
ln fact, it's escapism.''
:50:36
And l would say to them:
:50:38
''Sometimes escapism
:50:41
means plunging
into the greater reality.
:50:44
Our people need
the great reality.''
:50:49
Though, do you know how
our enemies may interpret it?
:50:54
As a call to anarchy.
Yes, yes, to all-out anarchy.
:51:00
And who is this?
:51:07
Very good, Sandro, very good!
:51:12
And here's our Nino.
Splendid work!
:51:22
lt would be interesting to look into
their brains. What's going on there?
:51:45
Dear Sandro,
at least they're literate.
:51:50
And what ignoramuses l have to deal
with in my line of duty!
:51:55
- lsn't that true, dear Yelena?
- Absolutely true.
:51:58
Today we need to have beside us
the artists exactly like you.
