About Art

Since the topic of contemporary art (which may be in worse shape even than contemporary literature) came up on this blog, I thought I'd throw out there for comment a piece written about our friend Roger D. Hodge, Number Two at Harper's, and his critical abilities.

See www.montrealserai.com/2000_Volume_13/13_1/Article_3.htm, if I got that right!

My own opinion is that self-absorbed obsessions masquerading as "transgressive" art is a cute way for the establishment to keep the spotlight away from truly transgressive art-- that which confronts the evils and machinations of this society.
