1988

Extraterrestial art being landed in city centres and being rejected wholesale by the public as a way of getting back at political structures in which they have very little say; modern art was not predestined for display in public places as its origins derive from a contempt for the bourgeoisie; instead of compensating for the disfigurement of the city with pleasing works, artists have made matters worse through abstract, incomprehensible and brutalistic works.
