Yoshie, if your point is that there were artists that
were in the various CPs then that is beyond question. 
You are right.  But count how many of the below
actually hailed from "socialist" countries.  I mean,
Pasolini had a tenuous, at best, relationship with the
Italian CP, a party much less strict than even the
other Eurocommunist parties.  Aragon, Picasso and
Eluard all had important surrealist phases...can you
imagine that being promoted in the Soviet bloc?
