Cultural historian Isaac Butler presents "The Perfect Moment: God, Sex, Art, and the Birth of America's Culture Wars," a New Yorker Best Book of 2026 So Far. The book revisits the 1988-era fights over artists such as Robert Mapplethorpe and Andres Serrano as the origin of today's culture wars. He is joined in conversation by Princeton professor Brian Herrera.
