A tendency toward introspection, and subliminal sexuality along with the subconscious direction of mind, are brought to light by the use …

Untitled Drawing Series: Influenced By A Mother And Child Relationship, Elaine A. Powell-Ascroft
Dissertations and Theses

There is probably little doubt that the fissure between "high" and "low" culture is more conspicuous nowadays than it ever was.

Their foreboding premonitions, however, could not hinder the relentless success of popular culture and the retreat of so-called high art into the safe harbors of the university campus, the museum, and the private sphere.
