Let's go to the Museum

S/ 57.00
Does contemporary art seem pointless to you? In this first title in the Dung Beetle book collection, the author mercilessly mocks the world of contemporary art, postmodernism, society, and current politics. She recounts Susan and John's intense visit, accompanied by their mother, to a contemporary art museum in London. There, they discover, between wonder and bewilderment, the hidden meanings of the works on display; and their lives will never be the same after this trip. The Dung Beetle Reading Program books humorously and sarcastically parody the popular British Ladybird guidebooks of the 1950s. The author is full of good intentions: she aims to drag families into the darkest recesses of the collective unconscious, thus filling children with unease. These manuals propose an alternative educational method through which the little ones in the house will learn to hate the state, the patriarchy, and Western values. In each scene, three "new words" stand out, providing clues to the author's nefarious intentions, which aim to expand our knowledge of complex terms and thus complicate our lives.
