Med332 heavy metal
Heavy metal emerged in the late 1960s from genres like blues rock and psychedelic rock. It originated from bands like Black Sabbath in Birmingham, England that played heavily amplified, blues-influenced rock. In the 1980s, heavy metal became hugely popular commercially in the US and abroad, diversifying stylistically and attracting a more gender-balanced audience from various classes. However, the lyrics and imagery of many metal bands were criticized for celebrating misogyny, violence, and toxic masculinity. This led to parental advisory labels and Senate hearings over heavy metal's influence in the 1980s.

However, art was not always about perfection, and amateurs once had a more intimate connection to professionals by making art themselves before cameras and recordings. What is now lost
FINAL Sarah Charlesworth Press Highlights Report
Sarah Charlesworth's first major museum survey opened at the New Museum. She was a pioneering member of the Pictures Generation who made art by recombining photographs. While influential, she did not receive major attention perhaps because her work was "pristine, cerebral and devoid of easy irony." The exhibition highlights her friendship and influence on other artists like Cindy Sherman and Laurie Simmons. They recall meeting her in the early 1980s and being surprised by her later colorful "Objects of Desire" series that focused on beauty, moving away from her earlier conceptual work. While talented and opinionated, Charlesworth was less well-known than Sherman and Simmons, though this did not seem to bother her.
