Potęga fikcji

In his speech at the opening of Cultural Centre in Borges, André Malraux put popular culture – embodied by television and cinema – in opposition to Culture, which helps people cope with the vision of inevitable death. Culture is here the works of art that, although created in the past, have survived and to which we can still relate. Because of the huge cultural difference that took place together with the mechanisation of the society it is important to let people have access to Culture – and that should become the mission of the new, open France.
