of protesting against a closed society and a
totalitarian regime. It is based on an excessive use of
antimonies, antitheses, contradictions, oxymorons, and
paradoxes. It was set up and led by the writer
Florentin Smarandache in the 1980's, who said: ``The
goal is the enlargement of the artistic sphere through
non-artistic elements''.
One example of such a paradox is the two-line poem:
Even if he didn't
He did
