Re: Censorship in the arts

I'm a multimedia and photography teacher. I post my own photos to an online artists community called Deviant Art. It's a place where other asrtists look at your work and offer constructive criticism. I've found it really useful for improving my own photography but I have a real dilema - whilst they prohibit pornography they do allow 'artisitic nudes'. That means that I can't use the site with my highschool students because not every parent is going to agree with the sites moderators on exactly where that line should be drawn.
How much should schools be sheltering their students from this sort of content? Who should be deciding where that line is drawn?

In general I am against censorship of art. Just becuase someone creates it does not mean that I have to look at it if I find it to be objectionable. But I do beleive that there are some standards that a society must hold itself to, often expressed in law. I would not consider it true censorship if the government or a museum refused to display a piece that would fall afoul Canada's hate crimes or child pornography laws ... but artists should definitely be given full ability to express themselves within the realm of law.

There's a difference between pornography and art. If the purpose of a photo is to arouse people, I don't think it's art.
But in general I don't support censorship of any sort if it doesn't offend "common decency". E.g. I don't think a government should allow nude photos to be plastered on public billboards, but I think it's perfectly all right for them to be published for private audiences.

I believe that censorship is wrong in the arts, in all cases.
People are always talking about censorship in 'extreme cases', but that's too subjective for my tastes.
We can make our own judgements. As for children, it falls upon the parents to decide what to expose their children to.

I thought about this and had to laugh. *
The initial perspective I considered was the teachers' prerogative to minimise far out / offensive literature from getting in to schools / classrooms, and I thought a valid justification would be that it would make it difficult to focus on other commitments. They would want to make a fuss so that it didn't come back, would permit its discussion and distribution out of sight, but would try strongly to influence students away from doing so, probably using token penalties.*
However, then I noticed something rather odd - if you consider society as a whole as functioning in a similar way to a school, but on a much larger level, then censorship is basically a tacit validation: it's saying "this stuff is going on, it's part of human experience and is in our society, but we (the politicans and media) have decreed that it should be purged!" *
Censorship is something that makes for regular discussion amongst newcomers here (I live in Yunnan, the Southwest corner of China near Tibet and Burma, running a website that lets you book hotels in China).
So even though it comes up a lot, whenever I think about it, I like to conclude with a positive.
Censorship is never effective. *

I believe that censorship levels should generally be low, but in certain circumstances censorship is necessary. The censorships of books and movies in Schools should have certain rules, for example, you are not allowed to censor information based on some reasons. But censorship is sometimes necessary when the information is above the ratings of which children are allowed to read or see, or if it talks about subjects which may disturb or upset.
There would be other circumstances in which censorship is necessary, but I think that a few rules would provide a much needed guide to censorship, and help stop censorship purely based on reasons which are unjust. This issue also brushes with 1984 a book which explores a world of severe censorship. Censorship rules would help avoid even a less severe version of this, and allow the public to acces information which does not violate any rules.

Censorship in the arts is rarely neccesary, but there are circumstances where it is needed. Such as the case of Bill Hensons art, he took nude pictures of a girl, then called them art. This was blatantly wrong, and it became a controversial issue. If we allow photos like these to be called art, where would we then draw the line. People could take pictures of anything, and allow it to be shown to the public because it is supposed "art". Censorship in art is neccesary in cases like these, otherwise we would be unable to draw the line somewhere, because people could call it "art" even if it's not, and get away with it.

I'm an art teacher and I completely disagree with censorship in terms of banning books or other material. I think it's more of the parents' responsibility to decide what is more appropriate for their children. However I believe that there is a fine line between censorship and being appropriate.

Indeed...
Personally, I feel that it is wrong when a government censors something because the government fears whatever it was, but when you want to censor something for moral reasons, it starts to get sticky. After all, there is no universal definition appropriate.

hi,
don`t you think it`s a superfluously question, if censorship could be ok, or accepted. maybe it`s because i always lived in europe.
but let me give you one example:
you remember the happening of gallileo gallilei and other sientists in the 15/16 century?
the shall be no power to anyone to underpress human opinions!!!
many women and sientists had to die, because of their convantion.
ehat could be the afereffects today, if some siectists discover something, what could bring a great difference in oposit of living and thinking today.
and besides, noone has to take on peoples opinions, so everybody should be free today.
i don`t really know, how it`s about censorship in china today. german media report, there`s a hard censorship, reporter get arrested for their doing, but peole who lived there told me otherwise.....do you exactly know?

You make a good point about Gallelio. Da Vincis works were also vandalised by the inquistion, in order to protect their own vested self interest. The only censorship needed in the world is self censorship. Always be suspicious of people and organisation that want to limit access to ideas.

I, personally, am thinking along the same lines as Salman Rushdie. "If one loses the right to offend, then one loses the right to freedom of speech.". Or perhaps "It is very easy not to be offended by a book. Just close it.". This holds true for all arts, and all media. If it will offend you, don't look into the subject. Its that easy. No one has any right to tell another person what to look at, so Censorship, even for children, is nothing short of taking away that individuals rights and freedoms. People must judge right and wrong by their own moral code, not by the esoteric laws passed by the government.
