Art is international. Artists have always been internationalists.
There is great need for the organising of a world Labour Exchange of Art Workers. We appeal to our European comrades. They must help us to organise an International Union of Art Workers.
Let the International language Esperanto be the official language of this Union.
The Russian people have awakened from their slumber. They long for theatres, music and works of Art. But the needs of several millions cannot be satisfied by our artists alone. In towns as well as in the country actors have to play several times through the evening. We appeal to bur European comrades to come and help us in our work. There is a lack of material necessary to the development of Arts.
Europe must give us cinematograph films, "Eastman Kodak" apparatus, chemicals, musical instruments, strings, mouth pieces, colours, etc. The blockade must be raised.
Come to Russia, comrades, and you will see that the Russian Soviet Republic is neither a desert nor a barbarous country. You will convince yourselves that Art occupies a place of honour in our lives.
We are waiting for you. Workers, in all branches of Art.
Send your delegation to Moscow and give us the opportunity to send our comrades to confer with you.
Long Live the International Union of Art Workers!
