Subversive forepleasure



In thinking about pleasure and art, I find it useful to go back to Freud's text Creative Writers and Daydreamers (1908), where he explores the question of why readers and art viewers experience pleasure in certain works. He argues that artists and writers "bribe" their public with "forepleasure", and claims that the success of an artwork can often be measured by the degree of pleasure it affords its viewers. Though he doesn't refer explicitly to political art, he does address the issue of the 'message' conveyed by art: he believes that forepleasure serves to smuggle the artist's message -- almost like contraband -- into the viewer's mind by temporarily shutting off his conscious defenses.



-- Ruben Gallo, in Cream 3

In thinking about pleasure and art, I find it useful to find some privacy.



But that's just me.

How like Freud to take something pleasurable and make it sound seditious and pathological.
