抄録
This paper, a beginning foray into the complex relationship between the American flag and art, is divided into two parts. The first part is a discussion of the legal and political challenges that American flag art encountered in the 1960s and 1970s, and the second is an examination of American flag art of Faith Ringgold, who has incorporated the Stars and Stripes image as a crucial motif in her work since the 1960s. During the late 60s and 70s, a period marked by the rise of the anti-Vietnam war movement and minority liberation struggles, “flag desecration” emerged as a potent form of protest against the US government and its policies, sparking intense political debate. The first half of this paper delves into the contentious issues such as “political censorship” and “freedom of expression,” focusing on arts-related litigation cases from the 1960s to the 1970s, in which Ringgold herself became involved. The latter half provides a detailed analysis of Ringgold’s artworks, which are often considered the most iconic among numerous works of American flag art. The second part discusses several of Ringgold’s flag works from the 1960s to the 1990s, along with their socio-political contexts, to highlight the artist’s struggles and quest expressed in her appropriation of the Stars and Stripes image. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the inevitable difficulties that national flag art faces in American society where civil religion functions intensely, as well as the phases of struggles and negotiations over the flag through an examination of the various contexts of Ringgold’s works.
