*- In our sociological context, the pursuit of profit and the
commodification of art can therefore be seen as a limitation on freedom and
a constraint against the hope inducing and renewing qualities of art. This
commercial pressure exerted on creativity is even more sinister in the
context of ideological art, where creative expression seeks to ask questions
of the dominant culture and engage politically in conveying real freedom.*
