Andre Malraux Facts

Georges André Malraux was a French novelist, art theorist, and Minister of Cultural Affairs. Malraux's works on the theory of art contain a revolutionary approach to art that challenges the Enlightenment tradition that treats art simply as a source of "aesthetic pleasure". However, as French writer André Brincourt has commented, Malraux's books on art have been "skimmed a lot but very little read" and the radical implications of his thinking are often missed. (1901-1976)

Quotes by Andre Malraux

Andre Malraux /Voices of Silence /

I don't argue with my enemies; I explain to their children.
Andre Malraux

Often the difference between a successful person and a failure is not one has better abilities or ideas, but the courage that one has to bet on one's ideas, to take a calculated risk - and to act.
Andre Malraux
