Artists and politicians

Do you agree with Wright’s theory that artists and politicians stand at opposite poles?

No. It depends on the artist and politician. Those communists in the book obviously didn't get along with the artists. However, like anything else, it depends on the person. A more artistically-minded politician could in fact have things in common with an artist. I think they would have to agree politically, and the politician would have to have some liking for art(ists), but it's not impossible that they'd work together. For example, if a politician really does have his constituents' best interests at heart (ie he isn't corrupt or inefficient) and he wants to do something for the community, he can commission artwork like murals, paintings, etc. A politician's job is supposed to be to help out the community. If he does that with an open mind, there is no reason his ideas would conflict with artists'.
