How did politics influence Abstract Expressionism?
How did politics influence Abstract Expressionism?
also.. does anyone know how surrealism and cubism influenced abstract expressionism? i tried googling it but nothing came up.
thanks.
Since mid 1970s it has been argued by revisionist historians that the style attracted the attention, in the early 1950s, of the CIA, who saw it as representative of the USA as a haven of free thought and free markets, as well as a challenge to both the socialist realist styles prevalent in communist nations and the dominance of the European art markets. The book by Frances Stonor Saunders, The Cultural Cold War—The CIA and the World of Arts and Letters, and other publications such as Who Paid the Piper?: CIA and the Cultural Cold War, detail how the CIA financed and organized the promotion of American abstract expressionists as part of cultural imperialism via the Congress for Cultural Freedom from 1950–67. Against this revisionist tradition, an essay by Michael Kimmelman, chief art critic of The New York Times, called Revisiting the Revisionists: The Modern, Its Critics and the Cold War, argue that much of this information (as well as the revisionists' interpretation of it) concerning what was happening on the American art scene during the 1940s and 50s is flatly false, or at best (contrary to the revisionists' avowed historiographic principles) decontextualized. Other books on the subject include Art in the Cold War by Christine Lindey, which also describes the art of the Soviet Union at the same time.

What makes a story a work of literature?
I've been given a story (A night of frost and a morning of mist, by Janet Frame) and been asked to:
"Read the assigned Janet Frame story and be prepared to discuss what makes it a work of literature."
So what features do you think make a story a work of literature? It seems a pretty abstract question which could have many answers. Could it be the style/theme, or the plot of a story, or the figures of speech, or the message conveyed?
By definition, it is literature (a written work), but I think the assignment is asking what gives the work "literary merit."
"A work is said to have literary merit (to be a work of art) if it is a work of quality, that is if it has some aesthetic value."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literature
Generally, works considered to have literary merit contain some profound message, conform to basic standards of English (or the standards of their native language), exhibit creative elements, have a consistent plot line and convincing characters, and usually include several literary devices (allusion, metaphor, symbolism, etc).
