Most agreed a great deal of value in terms of inspiration to the present Two were more generation specific They answered with the single word: Balanchine George Balanchine director of the New York City Ballet anti the founder of American in studied Classic dance during the twenties In 1924 he left Russia to come to the West But before he left Russia he had cone under the influence of Goleizovsky and Lopukhov he once "Goleizovsky" Petrograd said "was never a direct influence but seeing his work inspired me to try my own hand at choreography" - The influence of Lopukhov Balanchine whcise student waa proved more enduring ' " Politically Oriented Soviet art is politically oriented The state not only governs art it also pays for it Like most pipers it wishes to' call the tune This is not Ideal yet neither is the Amer-lea- n system whereby an arts patron buys influence And the West must put up with the e the influence of the need to be popular successful and financially solvent not - The age of Stalin was epnducive to artistic achievement Just why Lopukhov and Goleizovsky passed out of favor at this time is a question to which probably they i asmsel ve s do not know the answer The reasons were probably similar to those that led to attacks against Dmitri Shostakovich first in 1938 and later in February 1948 Shostakovich and other prominent S e Viet composers were accused of "artistic crimes" Including the one of having "persistently adhered to formalism and antipopular practices" Lopukhov as choreographer of Shostakovich's ballet about a collective farm box-offic- t -
