Sexualizing Audiences: Aubrey Beardsley’s Exclusive Codes and Mass Appeal

SUMMARY

To date, Aubrey Beardsley’s output and personality have been linked with an idea of sexual transgression. In academic discussions, his provoking art is usually opposed to Victorian sexual mores which are regarded as hypocritical and suppressive. The essay argues against generalizations in understanding contemporary recipients of Beardsley’s works and explores his possible target audiences. Beardsley conceived his works as multilayered pieces capable of appealing to different social groups depending on their level of knowledge. Alongside the erotic elements that were visible to anyone willing to participate in the game of sexual hints, he saturated his art with in-jokes that could be read only by the members of his exclusive social milieu.
