About the book

Taste? the good, the bad, and the really expensive" deals with the question whether common categories of taste are still useful and what significance they have in contemporary art. In the past generations of artists tried to influence society with new ideals of beauty. "Taste" is devoted to works that challenge the idealistic belief in the moral and social values of aesthetic forms and norms. Chronologically the book starts with an excursion to the time around 1800, when landscape painting was not merely meant to convey pleasure, but also to set moral values. 0Exhibition: Staatliche Kunsthalle, Baden-Baden (9.7-9.10.2011).
