Abstract
A discussion of recent censorship attacks on fine-art
photography by American conservatives and fundamentalists. The
author places this attack on photography and sexual imagery in
the broader context of recent right-wing political efforts to
shape the cultural and social climate in which political
decisions are made. 'Sexual explicit images are under attack,
because they stand in for sexual behaviours and attitudes that
conservative groups would like to control, or even eliminate'.
