| Meer info | Blasphemy: Art that Offends is a prescient examination of the perpetually troubled, often explosive relationship between religion, politics and art. This book draws on a rich wealth of visual material, tracing both the history of blasphemy as a concept and re-positioning the term in the twenty-first century. Religious and political authorities have burned, banned and banished blasphemous art for centuries. In 1627, Dutch political authorities tortured and imprisoned the painter Johannes Torrentius for creating blasphemous images mostly pornographic renderings of mythological subjects and publicly burned his paintings. In 1989, US Senator Jesse Helms decried Andres Serrano's Piss Christ calling it blasphemy and insensitivity toward the religious community. In a reversal of Torrentius' artistic fate, Helms' accusations, accompanied by the tearing up of a copy of the offending picture, helped raise Serrano's status as a photographer, prompting both international visibility and an increase in sales of his work. |
