Abstract
- The article explores the concept of aesthetic disobedience proposed by philosopher Jonathan Neufeld based on the definition of civil disobedience presented by philosopher John Rawls in his book "A Theory of Justice." Topics discussed include the involvement of both artists and audience members in acts of aesthetic disobedience, the violation of relevant artistic norms observed in the 1989 protest artwork "Do Women Have to Be Naked to Get Into the Met. Museum?," by anonymous artist collective Guerilla Girls, and the activism demonstrated by performers in Peter Handke's play "Publikumbeschimpfung (Offending the Audience)."
