Cultural Criticism. In his first collection of essays, David Levi Strauss addresses the always conflicted relation between aesthetics and politics by concentrating on specific instances—from allopathic art to Desert Storm propaganda, from Columbus' legacy to Robert Smithson's prophesies, and from new art in post-Soviet Russia to public art in the United States—by focusing on the work of artists as various as Grunewald, Jean Genet, Cindy Sherman, Joseph Beuys and Andy Warhol, Jean-Luc Godard and Anne-Marie Mieville, Carolee Schneemann, Andrei Monastyrsky, and Daniel Joseph Martinez.
