Auther, Wallpaper, the Decorative, and Contemporary Installation Art (original) (raw)

This paper explores the intersection of wallpaper, decorative art, and contemporary installation art, particularly how these elements challenge traditional art categorizations. Through the lens of Andy Warhol's works, such as Cow Wallpaper, the analysis uncovers the historical context of the decorative as a derogatory classification in art, illustrating how it has evolved and can be celebrated. The discussion also touches upon significant exhibitions that center on contemporary wallpaper, suggesting an emerging appreciation for the decorative in modern art.
