Reviews

Contemporary art's post-criticality is difficult to define. This book radically redraws our assumptions of modern art from the viewpoint of contemporary practice. It finds that contemporary plurality has been latent since the 19th century and that a folkloric driver was always the hidden shadow in our definitions of what art is and can be. --Oliver Watts, University of Sydney, Australia
