Описание: Хрестоматийная работа итальянского художника и философа Джилло Дорфлеса (родился 12 апреля 1910 года) о том, что именно «масскульт» характерен культивированием явлений и продуктов, имеющих внешние признаки искусства, но на самом деле являющихся его преднамеренной фальсификацией.

Разумеется, такую нужную российскому обществу сейчас книгу, как «Китч. Мир дурного вкуса» Дорфлеса никто переводить не собирается, — а на перевод и издание откровенно ненаучной (но зато «разоблачающей» гегельянство и марксизм) книги Поппера «Открытое общество и его противники» нашлось столько денег, что книгу переводили ударными темпами два десятка переводчиков и издали «с колес» — и огромным тиражом!

Gillo Dorfles (born 12 April 1910) is an Italian art critic, painter, and philosopher. He turned 100 in April 2010.

Born in Trieste to a Gorizian father and a Genoese mother, Dorfles graduated in medicine, specializing in psychiatry. He was a professor in aesthetics at the University of Trieste, Milan and Cagliari and, in 1948, established the MAC (Movimento per l'arte concreta) with artists Atanasio Soldati, Galliano Mazzon, Gianni Monnet, and Bruno Munari. His paintings were displayed in two personal exhibitions held in Milan in 1949 and 1950 and also in numerous collective MAC exhibitions in the 1950s. In 1956 Dorfles co-founded the ADI (Associazione per il disegno industriale).

Having stopped painting, he devoted himself to the study of aesthetics and art criticism, dealing with the problem of the vanguard, the relationship between art and industry, analizing artistic phenomena, and tastes in the contemporary society. According to Dorfles, aesthetics should focus on culture as a whole, which combine elements of fantasy, symbolic, metaphorical and even mythical suggestions. Among his major works, L'architettura moderna (1954), Kitsch (originally published in Italian in 1968 and translated in English the following year), La moda della moda (1984), Il feticcio quotidiano (1988), Horror pleni. La (in)civiltà del rumore (2008). In the same period, however, Dorfles continued to hold personal exhibitions: in 1986 his works were displayed in Milan, in 1988 in Aosta, and in 1996 in Rome.

In 2010, for his 100th birthday celebrations, L'avanguardia tradita took place at the Royal Palace of Milan. Another exhibition was held in 2012 at the Milan Triennale, organized by Dorfles itself, entitled Dorfles. Kitsch - oggi il kitsch.

At 103, Dorfles published a new book (Poesie, Campanotto Editore, 2013), containing previously unpublished poems written from 1941 to 1952. In 2013 he was among the artists that designed the Tibetan pavilion at the 55th Venice Biennale.
