Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1. 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.Questions of censorship and freedom of expression are today extremely volatile, a fact evinced by the recent international backlash against the Danish newspaper Islamic caricatures and the murder of the Dutch filmmaker Theo Van Gogh following the release of his notorious Submission. Blasphemy: Art that Offends provides a vital vantage point from which to view the complicated, compelling interrelations between religion, politics and the visual arts.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 Serranos 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 Serranos status as a photographer, prompting both international visibility and an increase in sales of his work.God, Mohammed, Jesus, the Quran, the Bible and the Torah have all been at one point or another subjected to artistic interpretation, as have more liberal values, such as friendship, education and the nation-state. The book features a broad range of iconographic and textual material including painting, photography, calligraphy, illuminated manuscripts, advertisement, graphic design, and film.Works including Piss Christ and Dinos and Jake Chapmans Hell, as well as the films Submission and Monty Pythons Life of Brian are explored in detail by author and academic S Brent Plate. Also analysed are transgressive works of art, past and present, which walk the line between expression and incitement, by Francis Bacon, Banksy, Caravaggio, Marc Chagall, Marcus Harvey, Sarah Lucas, Edvard Munch, Herman Nitsch and Rembrandt amongst others.In the twenty-first century the boundary between artistic freedom and incitement is becoming ever more blurred, and the modes of objection by political and religious fundamentalists are becoming ever more extreme. BBlasphemy: Art that Offends is testament to the enduring power of images and words to provoke, challenge and engage, questioning the status of blasphemy in a world ever more divided as to what is acceptable and what is profane.

First Edition. An exceptional copy; fine in an equally fine dw, now mylar-sleeved. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new.; 189 pages; Physical desc. : 189 p. : ill. (chiefly col.) ; 29 cm. Includes bibliographical references (p. 182-185) and indexes. Subject: Religion in art --Art and religion --Blasphemy. Summary: Questions of censorship and freedom of expression are as topical now as they have ever been, as evidenced by the recent international backlash against the Jyllands Posten Islamic caricatures. The boundary between artistic freedom and incitement is becoming ever more blurred, and the modes of objection by political and religious fundamentalists to art which they consider offensive are becoming ever more fervent and extreme. Blasphemy: Art That Offends examines the subject, from the emergence of blasphemy as a concept in Judaism, Christianity and Islam, to its contemporary status and definition in an ostensibly more liberal world, but one that is divided over what is acceptable, with politics and religion remaining inextricably linked. With works ranging from fourteenth century Islamic calligraphy to Andres Serrano's Piss Christ and Theo van Gogh's Submission, Blasphemy: Art That Offends takes a broad view of what is, and has historically been, perceived as controversial, idolatrous or obscene. This is a beautifully illustrated and timely consideration of art and its relationship to authority, censorship and public taste. 2 Kg.
