Liliana Viola journalist eloquently writes in the latest edition of Radar (Sunday supplement of Pagina/12) on the latest collection of designer John Galliano for Dior Homme (winter 2008):
"The sensuality of extreme pain in Abreva 'vice English', judging by some, has been amalgamated with that of the captive here, political prisoner, the victim just part of an" experience "of torture. That is forgotten, so do not forget that these are objects of consumption, expensive and beautiful, a trivialization of suffering that always happens to others, the source of inspiration. "
I do not know how clear it is that I quote this paragraph in respect of any note, but it made me think a lot the word 'normalization'. Since I find this very true that in a race to see who is more original, exotic and / or controversial in all fields more or less linked to the artistic disciplines, banalizan growing more. Until I pass, when a photo bag 'quaint' to a resident of a village inhospitable to any country I visit.
No plan to make judgments, but simply to invite reflection reading this note. Links:
