At least we tried.
Today (fine, yesterday) we had our first and only unofficial RE meeting one! All hail! Anyway, we were trying to come up with definitions for kitsch, and raised some issues.
Anyway, our initial definitions included
- "[T]he absolute denial of shit" as said by Milan Kundera and
- Art produced and reproduced (relentlessly?) in bad taste
We tried to challenge this, to no avail because we were distracted, though we came up with two questions?
- Does cliche not equal kitsch?
- Does tradition not equal kitsch?
Comments?
