Culture in Action show in Chicago 1993: art in the city streets

Earlier art movements:
-Situationism International
-Arts and Crafts Movement: John Ruskin and William Morris; Morris: "Apart from my desire to produce beautiful things, the leading passion of my life is hatred of modern civilisation." "Have nothing in your houses which you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful."
from John Burdick's book on Morris: "Morris was driven like few others to create, and all of his creations shared a common purpose: to oppose what he saw as the bland tedium, greed, and degraded tastes of the Victorian industrial world and to restore the power of art in everyday life."
