AtD-related? "the abstraction of non-imperial art"

[Mark Kohut]

"The abstraction of non-imperial art is not concerned with any particular public or audience."

From an online tweet and NO link.....but we plisters don't need no stinkin' link to a real 
essay to have a good discussion, do we? 

I would, many of you have in various ways, see Pynchon's art as anti-imperialistic, yes? 

If his irrealness, surrealism, savage Swiftian satire, or whatever we
want to call his style is labelled 
'abstract' for purposes of this discussion---basically, not realistic and full of ideas---

any thoughts on the quote?
