  • Against Value in the Arts and Education

    Edición de Sam Ladkin, Robert McKay, Emile Bojesen ...
    Series series Disruptions
    Against Value in the Arts and Education proposes that it is often the staunchest defenders of art who do it the most harm, by suppressing or mollifying its dissenting voice, by neutralizing its painful truths, and by instrumentalizing its ambivalence. The result is that rather than expanding the autonomy of thought and feeling of the artist and the audience, art’s defenders make art self-satisfied ... Leer más

  • Venus in Exile

    The Rejection of Beauty in Twentieth-century Art

    de Wendy Steiner ...
    Whereas previous eras had celebrated beauty as the central aim of art, the modernist avant-garde were deeply suspicious of beauty and its perennial symbols, woman and ornament, preferring instead the thrill and alienation of the sublime.
