More about Lubbock Art Censorship
I spoke with a Texas Tech Professor Emeritus of Art at a Christmas party last night, and naturally our conversation found its way to the recent censorship debacle. He told me that this was not the first instance of censorship at the Buddy Holly Center, and that sometime in 2006 several staff members of the Buddy Holly Center were fired. I wonder if someone was cleaning house at the BHC in order to micromanage the facility from City Hall.
Also, in my recap post I neglected Bill Kerns’ excellent coverage of the matter at the Center Stage blog:
