{"product_id":"2661768","title":"Against Morality","description":"In this thought-provoking critique, Rosanna McLaughlin challenges the prevailing moralizing trend in contemporary art, arguing that art should not be determined by political ideals. With a keen eye for rhetorical strategies, McLaughlin examines how the cultural left's championed tools have been co-opted by the political right, often resulting in reductive and misleading moral posturing. Through a nuanced exploration of the sanctimonious outrage that pervades art criticism, McLaughlin coins the term 'Liberal Realism' to describe a strain of art and art writing that resents ambivalence and replaces critical inquiry with dogmatic certitude. This incisive manifesto is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of art and politics in the 21st century. With its concise and accessible language, Against Morality is an essential contribution to the ongoing debate about the role of art in shaping our cultural and moral landscape.","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54706505843073,"sku":"2661768","price":18.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/41Xp8K69h0L.jpg?v=1757188004","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2661768","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
