Description

Against Value in the Arts and Education explores the complex relationship between art defenders and the preservation of artistic integrity. This work from the Disruptions series examines how the very people who support the arts may inadvertently cause harm by suppressing dissenting voices or neutralizing painful truths. Rather than expanding the autonomy of thought and feeling for both artists and audiences, the book argues that certain defensive practices can turn art into a self-satisfied echo chamber. It looks at how the current audit culture affects the way lives are described and experienced through artistic expression. This text provides a deep look at how the instrumentalization of ambivalence can limit the impact of creative works. It is an essential read for those interested in the history and criticism of art and how institutional practices shape our cultural landscape.
