Beauty and the Beast: A Symposium on Stalin and the Arts
Thu, Apr 05, 2007 @ 10:00 AM - 06:00 PM
USC Viterbi School of Engineering
Receptions & Special Events
The symposium will focus on how culture practiced under a political dictatorship suffers and declines as a result of ideological interference. The symposium will also touch upon the counter argument, i.e., that occasionally ideological interference may bring inspiration and aesthetic benefit. In order to support the two suppositions, speakers will follow two avenues of inquiry: one indicating the detrimental result of political dictatorship upon the arts; the other indicating that institutions such as censorship and ideological imposition may not always interfere with aesthetic progress and may even generate original works of art.
