This book examines nobrow, a cultural formation that intertwines art and entertainment into an identifiable creative force.Â In our eclectic and culturally turbocharged world, the binary of highbrow vs. lowbrow is incapable of doing justice to the complexity and artistry of cultural production.Â Until now, the historical power, aesthetic complexity, and social significance of nobrow â€œartertainmentâ€? have escaped analysis. This bookÂ rectifies this oversight. Smart, funny, and iconoclastic, it scrutinizes the many faces of nobrow, throwing surprising light on the hazards and rewards of traffic between high entertainment and genre art.
