The article talks about Istvan Kantor's artwork, which is seen as urban-guerrilla. It discusses how his art assaults authority, technological evolution, 'the mechanization of the body through bureaucracy' and the celebrity of the artist through direct assault using blood, excrement, sex, tar, and similarly dirty or personal materials and experiences. The piece looks at his history, with a general overview of how his ideas and art developed, and gives a fair amount of attention to his videos Black Flag, Broadcast, and Lebensraum/Lifespace, their editing techniques, and their impact.
