Fritz Karpfen - Kitsch: Um Estudo Sobre a Degenerescência da Arte
15.00€
An essay written in 1925, this text is one of the first significant references to kitsch, a phenomenon that has historically followed, like a shadow, the artistic vanguards.
In this decisive and inaugural reflection, both controversial and mocking, Fritz Karpfen dissects the petit-bourgeois "sleeping" function of kitsch in its multiple incarnations, ranging from exotic-colonial to religious art, from comforting interiors to widespread social compensation.
