First published in 1986, Too Much records the tumultuous period
between 1960 and 1975 when, more than at any other time in history,
the arts were a battleground for the conflicting forces of social
change. With the new affluence of the Sixties the cultural
conformism of the previous decade was rejected in favour of new
forms of expression. Pop Art, pop music, fringe theatre and
performance poetry helped to create the semi-mythological image of
'Swinging London.' The liberation ethic was feted as it masked the
insecurities of a society in decline but, as a real political
challenge to the status quo, it also led to conflict. The
confrontation between official culture and the underground came in
1968, a year with its own mythical resonance. This book will be of
interest to students of art, media studies and cultural studies.
