Let art decisively give priority to what is considered the feminine "absurd", let it regard as a bitter enemy anything that has the arrogance to be considered certain, stable, and carries the stamp of this masculine obstinacy, which, at the level of human relationships on an international scale, today shows quite clearly what it is capable of doing.
It is no longer time, I say, at this point to remain in noble intentions, in compromises that are more or less disgraceful, but it is time to express oneself in art unequivocally against the man and in favor of the woman, to dethrone the man from a power that has sufficiently proven to be abused, in order to deliver this power into the hands of the woman.
To reject all objections from the man as long as the woman has not managed to take her fair share of this power, and this not anymore in art but in life.
