Artpress debates the 1960s-70s 'parenthesis' and intellectual terrorism
A 1994 article in Artpress questions the historical judgment of the 1960s and 1970s, decades often dismissed as a 'parenthesis' of intellectual terrorism dominated by theory, political engagement, and linguistic experimentation. The article notes that the 1980s had condemned this period, but a new generation now seeks to reconnect with those years, prompting a reconsideration of which decade truly deserves to be bracketed off.
