Threshold - Static

In “Art and Revolution,” Wagner summarizes the goals of his revolution, realizing that the forces of art are clearly not enough to rebuild the world: first you need to conquer the arena in which free art could develop. “When society reaches an excellent, high level of human development — which we will not achieve exclusively with the help of our art, but can only hope to achieve with the assistance of the inevitable future great social revolutions — then theatrical performances will be the first collective enterprises in which the concept of money and profit; for if, thanks to the conditions set out above, education will become more and more artistic, then we will all become artists in the sense that, as artists,we will be able to combine our efforts for collective free action out of love for the artistic activity itself, and not for the sake of an external industrial goal.
