Description

EPISODE 15 of 'All About Art': Art Censorship 
In this episode, I chat about the act of censorship in public spaces with a particular example that involves the US, the UK, Germany and Austria. The case study I use is of the "100 Years and Still Too Daring?" ad campaign by the Vienna Tourist Board for the Viennese Modernism retrospective with works by Austrian artist Egon Schiele.
