For The Continuing Presence of the Past: Raqib Shaw’s Garden of Earthly Delights X: Shaw has described his own painting as “a vision of earthly delight gone drastically wrong.” How might this apply to Bosch’s as well? But how do their visions differ?
What will be an ideal response?
From Shaw’s quote, we can see that both artists see earthly delights as having the potential to go awry. However, where Bosch sees this as a moral flaw—accumulation of sinful acts that lead to hell—Shaw imagines a world of “no inhibitions” where “there are no moral policemen” and that is “happy to be what it is.”
