Disclosing spaces : on painting Andrew Benjamin Published by Clinamen Press (2004) |
Book description
A new direction in art criticism is laid out in this striking program for
realigning the relationship between painting and criticism. Putting forth the
idea that painting evolves and encounters new territory through a constant
tension between art and criticism, this treatise draws on the work of
philosophers Immanuel Kant and Walter Benjamin as well as critics Arthur Danto
and Rosalind Krauss. Each argument is accompanied by a detailed analysis of a
wide range of classical, modern, and post-modern art pieces.
