Though originally conceived as a book of essays on painting, Schwabsky's diverse interests in literary theory (he cites giants Paul de Man and Roland Barthes as influences) and philosophy bring new perspectives to this collection. Walter Benjamin's views on color, E. H. Gombrich's theory of perception, Mel Bochner's and Liz Kotz's narratives of Conceptualism, and Sarah Thornton's peregrinations in the art world are but a few of the topics explored. In an era of hyper-specialization and rigid academic protocols, Barry Schwabsky revives a form of criticism one imagined barely existed a criticism of varied interests and passionate opinions. Written by Barry Schwabsky. Paperback; 248 pages.
