What is "gag"? Gag moves. Gag is visceral. Gag catches in the throat. A laugh. A retch. A joke. A bind. Pleasure and pain. Both noun and verb, gag provokes strong feelings. And, in the hands of artists, it offers a means of grappling with contemporary experience in a tragicomic mode.
Édouard Baldus (French, 1813–1889). The Louvre, ca. 1855. Albumen silver print. George Eastman Museum, gift of Eastman Kodak Company, ex-collection Gabriel Cromer.
