How Obscene Is This!
The Decency Clause Turns 20


Decency, Respect and Community Standards:
What Offends Us Now?
a discussion on controversial and banned art
Wednesday, 9/22 at the New School's Tishman Auditorium



Decency


You are invited to join the conversation!

This Wednesday, September 22, 2010 - 6:30 to 8:30 pm
The New School, Tishman Auditorium, 66 West 12 Street, New York
FREE ADMISSION
- Seating is limited and general admission.

Participants include:

  • Wafaa Bilal, Iraqi American artist, whose installation Virtual Jihadi was closed down by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York;
  • Holly Hughes, performance artist, one of the NEA4;
  • Trevor Paglen, social scientist, artist, writer and provocateur;
  • Carolee Schneemann, pioneering feminist filmmaker and visual artist who has battled censorship for the last fifty years.
  • Moderated by Laura Flanders of GritTV
Some of these artists are associated with the culture wars of the 90's, others were more recently censored during the War on Terrorism. Have attitudes towards representations of nudity and sexuality changed since the 1990s culture wars? Are religious topics still as inflammatory? What is considered offensive or inappropriate under our current political climate?


Hope to see you there,
Teresa Koberstein
