Scope and Contents

As noted in his biography, Tilson was "originally associated with the British Pop Art movement in the early 1960's. He was soon led in a different direction by his deeply held convictions and his dissatisfaction with the technology and industrial 'progress' of the consumer society. Art, Tilson has written, is a symbolic discourse of which mankind alone is capable." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
