Punk, Porn, & Politics: The Aesthetics of Radical Sexualities

朋克已经出现40年了，它对英国和美国的音乐、新闻、政治、时尚和设计产生了惊人的影响。尽管朋克已经融入了流行文化，但朋克挑战传统的影响仍然可以在激进主义、政治和性异见领域感受到。“成人娱乐”和朋克之间的交叉，作为对异性恋的抵抗形式，可以在阴道戴维斯，罗伯特·梅普尔索普，Pussy Riot和Courtney Trouble等不同人物的实践和作品中感受到。历史的、当代的、文化的、法律的和道德的战争一直围绕着艺术展开，质疑它的合法性和资金来源，特别是当性成为主题，或者当性与宗教、死亡、儿童、政治等其他主题发生关系时。艺术和色情以及艺术/色情的定义受到不断变化的宽容和政治气候的影响，艺术家和色情制作人利用朋克美学来扰乱所谓的“美好性爱”的美学和情感维度。撇开关于色情道德的标准问题，本研究试图探索色情作品中朋克的根源和路线。这将允许考察媒体制作和艺术努力之间的联系，探索朋克的地缘政治及其与“打破禁忌”的表现形式和性的激进潜力的联系。

It is forty years since the emergence of punk with its phenomenal impact on music, journalism, politics, fashion and design across the UK and USA. Although punk has been incorporated into popular culture, the influence of punk's challenges to convention can still be felt in areas of activism, politics and sexual dissidence. The crossovers between 'adult entertainment' and punk, as forms of resistance to heteronormativity can be felt in the practice and productions of figures as disparate as Vaginal Davis, Robert Mapplethorpe, Pussy Riot and Courtney Trouble. Historical, contemporary, cultural, legal, and moral battles have been fought over art, questioning its legitimacy and its funding, particularly when sex becomes the subject or when sex enters in to relation with other subjects such as religion, death, children, politics. Definitions of art and pornography and art/porn are caught in the ever-shifting climates of tolerance and politics, and punk aesthetics have been used by artists and porn producers to unsettle the aesthetic and affective dimensions of what is supposed to be 'good sex'. Setting aside the standard questions about the morality of pornography, this research seeks to explore the roots and routes of punk in pornographic productions. This will allow for an examination of the connections between media productions and artistic endeavours, exploring the geo-politics of punk and their connections to 'taboo-busting' representations and the radical potentials of sex.
