Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Almost everything our society considers art is only a counterfeit of art
Drawn from what Leo Tolstoy said
What Leo Tolstoy actually said
- Leo Tolstoy Russian novelist and moral philosopher (1828 to 1910)
This investigation has brought me to the conviction that almost all that our society considers to be art, good art, and the whole of art, far from being real and good art, and the whole of art, is not even art at all, but only a counterfeit of it.
