[Art] ‘A Culture of Fake Originality’ by Roger Scruton

· by

Thanks to a regular poster over at Tumblr, I’ve been given the pleasure of being introduced to the writing of Roger Scruton over at Aeon Magazine, who pens an essay deconstructing the phoniness of today’s art. Both artist and buyer are complicit in allowing this contagion to spread.

I expect to link more to Scruton’s long-form essays in the future.
