From: blp Category: Art Date: 25 March 2008 Time: 08:13 AM Review: OK: Žižek. I don't mind acknowledging my sources, but I left it out here because someone on this site seems to be prejudiced against him because of his beard. Also, as I understand it (which is to say, so far, quite shakily), although I'm getting it from Žižek, the idea itself is already there in Marx. And, in a distorted or misunderstood form, would have driven or justified Stalinism's (an)aesthetic, anti-formalist strictures. Thanks for the article.
