Radical chic is a dissection of the need among wealthy liberals in late 1960s America to be seen to support the correct political causes, even if that meant giving champagne receptions for the feared Black Panther Party. Mau-mauing the flak catchers takes a satirical look at how, during that period of cultural upheaval, minority groups from the ghettoes refined the art of intimidating the white bureaucracy. These two essays transport the reader back to the heady days of hippie revolution and Black Power.The painted word is a survey of modern art. Taking in Picasso, Pollock and Warhol, he describes the tense relationship between bohemian artists ans their wealthy patrons, and concludes that modern art is theory, the paintings and sculptures themselves are mere illustrations of the text.
