CULTURE WARS I Censorship & Resistance
Table of Contents
"When did the media start hating artists? Was it in 1948, after Jackson Pollock hit his loose-limbed stride? Or 1848, when Gustave Courbet first exhibited his revolutionary socialist manifestos on canvas? Whatever date you choose, one thing is certain: By the time the Culture Wars heated up during the 1980s, brouhahas like the recent one at the Brooklyn Museum over a supposedly blasphemous painting already represented the victory of the real over the symbolic, the morphing of the modern art world into the postmodern media realm."
