Timid approach to a controversial subject
In viewing the exhibition last weekend I was disappointed by the lack of reference to contemporary issues. I too felt it skimmed over the sexual content and, although Nan Goldin's controversial image 'Klara and Edda Belly Dancing' was in evidence, it was burried within a loop of hundreds of other less controversial photos. No mention either of the Tate's own brush with controversy last year when they tried to exhibit Richard Prince's appropriation of the infamous Brooke Shields image. The Tate could have put themselves in the frame!
