Overview
In many contemporary societies we encounter iconoclasm breaking out with
renewed violence. Iconoclastic actions against objects of visual
material culture and testimonials of history act as dynamite in the
public sphere. They are expressions of political, religious, national,
and identity conflicts. Even the freedom of art is threatened by
censorship and cancel culture. Based on case studies from different
world regions, contemporary iconoclasms in art, media, and cultural
heritage are critically analyzed from both a global and an
interdisciplinary perspective.
Divided into three sections, the book discusses attacks on monuments and memorials, idol disputes in museums and the visual arts, and forms of mediated iconoclasm in contemporary art.
