Art under Marxism?

Hi all, I was hoping the marxists here could answer a question.
I’m a Marxist-Leninist myself, but I was wondering how a communist society could produce art, such as music, paintings, etc.
If the merit of an individual’s contribution is determined by its objective value to the community, how do we assign value to something as subjective as art? And what would be the incentive to create it?
We saw in the post-stalin Soviet Union how abstract art was discouraged simply because of the taste of the party leaders. How can we prevent this?
