Totalitarian Art

[KeinMitleid]

What are your views on Totalitarian art and aesthetics, such as we saw in the Third Reich, Fascist Italy, and the Stalinist USSR? What do you think of styles like Neo-Classicism, Italian Futurism, and Socialist Realism?

Best of the best.

good. But german art too epic and unreal and our ussr art about ordinary people (like we are, but slighly better), glorificating them. sotsrealism is a best kind of art.

I love totalitarian art.
They're epic, ominous, surreal, inspiring, motivating, etc.
