"Kunst ist immer politisch. Weil ihre Freiheit politisch ist." 

(...)

Kunst ist immer schon deswegen politisch, weil sie absolute Freiheit genießt und diese vorlebt. Wer diese Freiheit nutzt, bildet sie gleichzeitig ab. In Kunstwerken manifestiert sich also diese Freiheit – machst Du Kunst, bist Du frei. Und zeigst Freiheit.

(Stephan A. Schmidt)

"L'arte è sempre politica. Perché la sua libertà è politica".

(...)

L'arte è sempre politica perché gode di assoluta libertà e dà l'esempio. Chiunque usi questa libertà la riflette anche. Quindi questa libertà si manifesta nelle opere d'arte: se fai arte, sei liberǝ. E mostri libertà.

(Stephan A. Schmidt)

"Art is always political. Because its freedom is political."

(...)

Art is always political because it enjoys absolute freedom and sets an example. Anyone who uses this freedom also reflects it. So this freedom manifests itself in works of art – if you make art, you are free. And show freedom.
