In this initial installation of my first aesthetics series I talked about what the concept means to me, beginning with Susan Sontag's 1966 texts Against Interpretation, On Style an early, young adult experience at the 1987 Red Grooms show at the Whitney and much more. This is a new, ongoing series for us on aesthettics so stay tuned and watch this space!

In this first installation I inaugurate the series with the work of Susan Sontag, in particular her “Against Interpretation” and “On Style” from 1964, and relate these seminal texts on aesthetics with my own personal journey with all of the arts - with some emphasis on the visual art work in this first episode. As the series I will continue with many kinds of examples of human made things, from fine art to commercial design, prose and text, performance and much more some of which may surprise your host as the viewers as we go forward." #music #painting #illustration #poetry #philosophy #religion #spirituality #dance #ballet #susansontag #1960s #1970s #1980s #1990 #romantic #classical #modern #postmodern #pop #design #history #politics #literature #television #theatrelife
