art's ant
From the journal...
"Jonathan Meese, 'art's ant,' fullfils his purpose, his purpose in the service or Art. Art created everything, all gods are most loving ideologies of Art. Art is not a religion, but every religion is Art. Everything that is religious most lovingly ends up in the Museum, great, great, great. Jonathan Meese believes in everything. Every god is a mandate of Art. Art is not a god, but all gods can play with each other in the Dictatorship Of Art. Art is absolute protection. The Dictatorship Of Art is an eternal time of revolution. When the Dictatorship Of Art reigns, a new era begins: Everything will play. Art does not produce victims and martyrdom. (Great.)"

Toys
“And so, dear Stefano, I will give you guns. And I will teach you to play extremely complicated wars, where the truth will never be entirely on one side. You will release a lot of energy in your young years, and your ideas may be a bit confused, but slowly you will develop some convictions. Then, when you are grown up, you will believe that it was all a fairy tale: little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, the guns, the cannons, single combat, the witch and the seven dwarfs, armies against armies. But if by chance, when you are grown up, the monstrous characters of your childish dreams persist, witches, trolls, armies, bombs, compulsory military service, perhaps, having gained a critical attitude toward fairy tales, you will learn to live and criticize reality.”
