Summary:"Unlike in pre-modern periods, which subjected artists to the control of their patrons, and unlike too the modern period, which made the emancipated and subversive artist the victim of a generally obtuse society, the contemporary period endeavours to institutionalize revolt, subsidizing subversion. This society that claims to have laid social conflicts to rest also claims to accept the systematic anti-conformism of the emancipated arts. It must be requited to prove that it has not opened its temples to an insubordinate art only in order to neutralize its explosive force."--BOOK JACKET.
