Item #37 Kiáltvány a tömegek uj kulturájáért. Uj Művészetet. Le a művésszel, mert eladta magát. Le a csendélettel. Le a dekorációval. Le a széplelkek macskazenéjével. Le a hedonizmus cifra penészvirágával. Áhitatos nagy művészetet a millióknak. A felszabadult ember művészetét. Ki az utcára a tömegek elé. [Manifesto for the New Culture of the Masses. New Art! Down with the Artists Because they Sold Themselves! Down with the Still Life! Down with the Decoration! Down with the Caterwauling of the Namby-Pambies! Down with the Gaudy Ruins of Hedonism! Devoted, Great Art for the Millions! The Art of the Liberated Men! Out to the Streets, to Meet the Masses!]. Ödön – Hevesy Palasovszky, Iván.
