The main purpose of this volume is to look into a wide spectrum of
artistic ventures which cross boundaries and challenge habitual
thinking, consequently involving an element of provocation. While
it is true that not all great art is provocative, the most
memorable artefacts are these which have confounded our aesthetic
expectations or stirred our moral imagination. However, as the turn
of the millennium witnessed ever more shocking artistic gestures of
provocation, the question arises if there are any limits to
artistic freedom. The essays collected in this book offer a truly
interdisciplinary perspective and deal with creative acts of
transgression from a broad range of fields: literature, theatre,
visual art, film, anthropology, and others. This volume will appeal
to readers interested in artistic and academic pursuits that are
subversive and irreverent.
