Part of the outrage people ha have around that type of art is that the context of it is lost. The work of the impressionists was subversive, yet when impressionism becomes the dominant school, then it becomes undermined by abstractionsn xt and cubism. Toh, like to tie that up, like the kind of contradiction at the root of o art, i think that's an interesting avenue to go down, maybe at a later date. Yet. O mean, one of the most antrcient things about art is its movement.
This week the fellas talk Žižek's use of the Möbius strip. Žižek writes that "the Möbius strip stands for the basic dynamics of the order of being, for what was traditionally called the dialectical 'coincidence of opposites'". While working through the concept, &SoOn talks art, Top Gun, and Midnight In Paris.
