Pitts Grad Research Assignment: Discussion Questions on Article or Essay

How does shock art get reinterpreted by those who once championed it?
It seems that shock art is very much the haven for the young, but not always...But it does seems like the way that young people gravitate to it and older people tend to gravitate away from it as it becomes childish or passe. Does this mean shock art is not dead? It seems that as long as there is an established hireaarchy of anything shock will be viable. Of course the method and the execution will still always be critiqued, but as Bremer illustrated-you don't have to call it art for it to be shocking.

In a secondary realm, the discussion of consent and context seems like just a convienent way of justifying the punked nature of being called over the hill. Is there anytime that under the justification of shock art one can say off limits, or "just not now?"
I feel that if shock is where your heart is that no moment is off limit, no subject to shy away from. It is an oppositional attitude to take but it has its place in time and uses as Barhtes would say to disorganize and to destroy. Everything deserves to get shaken up.
