Before the Revolution
Chapter Seven
All Gods Children and Blue Suede Shoes


Feeling pretty depressed at the situation after reading Myers, I'm not sure what to say

except that

now I understand better why I have never connected with pop art.


More later.

  1. Note to self:

    Overall I related the explanation to a delightful art exhibit I saw last year: Inspiring Impressionism. Each Impressionistic painting was coupled with one which preceded it in history and was the probable inspiration for the new work.

    That’s what I learned from Myers: that these new-fangled pop culture gurus actually were aware of the culture which came before them….. but they wanted interpret it in a very avant garde way.

  2. Dana,
    I packed my book where I would be sure not to lose it. Therefore, I cannot find it. I guess I am taking a providential break. I have never been able to give even a passing nod to pop art.
