Bad Taste flavour is a metalinguistic provocation.
This issue aims at being an overture of aesthetic spites, a celebration
of kitsch and the grotesque. It aims at putting a cynical focus
on the sleaziness, bad habits, excesses and disturbing anomalies of a
hypertrophic, nauseated and, at times, nauseating society.
In mapping the bad taste, it tries not to impose any ethical filter to the
submitted works, all the more reason in such a hypercritical contemporary
context, where the application of mass morals, often arbitrary,
reminds more of a guillotine in a town square rather than the do-gooding
and moderate reprimand of a “good family man”.
Through this Yogurt flavour, we hope to carry out an exorcism,
where the aesthetics of bad taste, in its sophistication, become more
acceptable or, why not, necessary.
