The book “Armed Art” is the cooperation and thoughts of two young iranian marxist writers whose discussions are new and innovative in the field of marxist art and literature in Iran. This book starts with the theme of “Art In Class Society”. Art in “class society” is criticized because of the will to overdue the use –Value and the consumptive functions.

The created art becomes dramatic functions with this will to overdue the use –Value. This used workforce and the post -used are to blame for creating space between the founders of popular art and the elitism art. In this thesis the distinction is seen as the essence of formation of art belonging to the class society; because art in a “class society” is nothing else than the will to overdue the use-value.

It is obvious that the writers of this book are also aware of this, since they themselves have revealed it and they want to reach further than the use-value of the artistic piece, but not with suppression of it, which would not have any other destiny than the continuous failure of reaching further than the use-value , but with creating real use-value from artistic work and then reaching further.

In reality the co-authors of this book see the project of reaching further than the selling object of the art, to be possible only when the realization of use-value and not with rejecting the elementary of art.

This is a progressive and enlightening book created in cooperation between Amin Ghazai and Babak Salimi Zadeh – the first one a philosopher and the next a writer and poet.

The gathering of their thought has created a very interesting and different synthesis for a revolutionary art. It has been welcomed and received by the different thinking youth and the leftist student movement in Iran.
