Article Abstract:
A growing number of contemporary designs, many of them mass-produced, are revealing how social turbulence since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 is reflected back in the things people consume. Unlikely pairings of grenades and gilding, or guns and roses, reflect an interest not just in the superficial patina created by abuse but also in neutralizing the tools of carnage.
