[Stephen Ingram]

*FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION: ARE THERE LIMITS? A LOOK AT TRANSGRESSIVE ARTISTS
AND THEIR WORKS*

Presented by the SCLA Intellectual Freedom Committee and the Long Island
Library Resources Council



*January 8, 20251-2pmvia Zoom*

Presented by the SCLA Intellectual Freedom Committee and the Long Island

This presentation will explore the limits of freedom of expression by
looking at the works of several

"transgressive" artists. Does their work have socially redeeming value or
are these artists purposely

prurient, shocking, and socially subversive? Who gets to decide whether
these artists are given a platform or are cancelled?

Presenter: William Burns is a professor of English at Suffolk County
Community College. His research
interests include transgressive art, alternative cultural movements, and
post-modernism.
