Abstract
(en)
Addresses Clement Greenberg's criticism and premises, especially his influential 1939 essay, "Avant-garde and kitsch," from which many assumptions about the nature of popular culture and modern art continue to flow. Reconstructs the background of that essay and other of his writings in relation to their socio-political context, discusses the polemical force of Greenberg's writings, and demonstrates Greenberg's flawed reading of the history of modern art and the art of his own time.
