Originally titled Discorso sull’orrore dell’arte, Discourse on the horror of art by Paul Virilio and Enrico Baj is 2002 book about the “horror of art” – is it the horror of contemporary art for itself or the horror it causes among public? Baj, as a painter, and Virilio as an urban planner, ask each other some questions about the statute and perception of art and the sites where it is housed and exhibited.
