Hasło rewolucji permanentnej, czyli gejowska fantazja na tematy narodowe
Password of the permanent revolution, the gay fantasia on national themes

Summary/Abstract: This text is an attempt to describe gay and Marxist coalition in politics, art and humanities. By the analysis of the works of three artists: Felix Gonzales-Torres (“Untitled. Ross in L. A.”), Pedro Almodovar (“All about My Mother”) and Tony Kushner (“Angels in America”), the author seeks to find and define Marxist and queer basis of thinking of those artists and their works. The essay is also a critique of Polish gay and leftist movements that, according to the author, use trivialized aspects of Marxist thought. The idea of emancipation is possible only in art and thought experiments, such as those offered by Torres, Kushner and Almodovar – the great artists, whose projects of emancipation based on deep and profound analysis of Marx and, conscious or not, queer thinking are the most beautiful political utopias that the world has ever seen and created.
