Censored Art Today is an accessible, informed analysis of the debates raging around censorship of art andso-called ‘cancel culture’, focusing on who the censors are and why they areclamping down on forms of artistic expression worldwide. Art censorship is acenturies-old issue which appears to be on the rise in the 21st century - why is this the case?Gareth Harris expertly analyses the different contexts in which artists, museums and curators face restrictions today, investigating political censorship in China, Cuba and the Middle East; the suppression of LGBTQ+ artists in 'illiberal democracies'; the algorithms policing art online; Western museums and 'cancel culture'; and the narratives around 'problematic' monuments. His fascinating study, which draws on extensive research and interviews, reveals why censorship has become the hottest oftopics, impacting substantially on artists.
