    Sorry....we don't have the powerpoint presentation that he used. The video is the best we can do.

    Fascinating presentation. I was always attracted/repulsed by the kitsch factor in mass-produced Hindu art. I started painting abstract designs based on the Om symbol as an extension of meditation. Have been to many major museums in the world and have studied some art history but am mostly ignorant of current trends in art theory. This lecture was enlightening. The ISKCON "Bull Slaughters Man" image has always fascinated me -- as have ISKCON artists' depictions of deities and their avatars.

    @romanyj Wow, harsh! I update the lecture all the time -- the idea is to air problems and themes that still aren't resolved.

    Also, I never thought of Andreas Serrano's "Piss Christ" or Chris Ofili's "The Holy Virgin Mary" as anti-religious at all, but profoundly spiritual.
