Summary |
Program #305 : Title: Art for whose sake? "The current culture wars" in America combine aspects of political ideology and aesthetic taste. They also raise issues of class distinctions -- issues that have generally been overlooked or denied in American popular culture. Nowhere have these various influences mixed more violently than in the debate over public art - paintings and murals that adorn plazas and buildings throughout the nation. The argument intensified with the Kennedy administration's decision to use modernist art to make political and cultural statements. Casey Blake explains how that decision still resonates in disputes over the government's role in cultural activities today." |
|
Program #667: Title:The unfinished project "One of the oldest questions in philosophy is how people might better communicate their understanding of the world. Lorenzo Simpson's book ... updates this concern for our time. In this conversation he explains how thoughtful people can better communicate in this new age of globalization." |
