Kitap hakkında
In monkeys' right to paint, Turkish painter and self proclaimed cultural guerilla, Bedri Baykam takes on the entire western cultural establishment singlehandedly with a little help from fellow artists, soul mates and culturall sensitive art historians! Unyielding and determined to prove his case against the ethnocentricity of international art critics, Baykam goes on to unmask its inner machinations and campaings against a power block that has systematically 'borrowed' from and bastardized. Non-western civilizations and their artist while excluding them from the privileged western triangle of collectors, galleries and museums. Baykam's life work is a manual for artists and art viewers around the globe, especially those hungry to know who makes the rules in the art world and why the same few faces aprear everywhere.
