Apart from being a politician, André Malraux was also a cultural thinker, which greatly influenced his actions as the first Minister of Cultural Affairs in France. By setting up the institution of cultural centres, he put into practice the idea of democratisation of the arts. Believing in the French cultural messianism and that art can be the meeting place of different social classes, he successfully decentralised and democratised art in France, making it accessible to broader audiences.
