Reading 2

1- Since video artists had some rather graphic art, and art that, for the time, was very different, how did society react to this new form of art? Did they find it intriguing, or at the bottom of the totem pole when it came to the quality of the art? Did they find it avant-gard, or not interesting?

2- It seems as though video art sprang up around the same time as Pop Art. I know that Pop Art was meant to be seen by the mass media. Since video art was new, did the artists want to make it seen by most of society as well? If so, did they try to take advantage of most Americans have televisions at home, and try to get it into the television media, so it could be seen by a wider audience?
