Creative freedom v creative obscurity. Opposed?Chris Kraus answers #thiswomanswork #feministiconIndexed:

When you’re strange, weird, ratty and a total icon that no one spots, what do you do with your creativity? Chris Kraus explores precisely that in I Love Dick, hailed as a feminist masterpiece on the 20th century. We explore the artistic implications of obscurity as presented by this complex, layered and extremely funny book. #booklover #feministtheory #feminism #contemporaryart #artpodcast #artwonderment #exhibitionistas #notesonart
