00"(...) At the same time, this theory ("art for art's sake") creats a legend which envelops art, the legend of its intangible, sacrosanct, and mysterious character which makes art aloof and inaccessible to the masses. European painting throughout the 19th century has this general aspect. The revolutionary painters are to be regarded as heroic exceptions. Since art is a product that nourishes human beings it is subject to the action of the law of supply and demand just as in any other product necessary to life. In the 19th century the proletariat was in no position to make an effective economic demand for art products. The demand was all in the part of the bourgeois. 01font01b00It can be only as a striking and heroic exception, therefore, that art of a revolutionary character can be produced under the circumstances of bourgeois demand.02b02font00"02br
