商品簡介
Venerable art critic and Guggenheim curator Celant likens his experience of American art to being caught in a tornado that blew him from coast to coast and back. In this collection of critical essays written and published between the 1960s and 2006, Celant shares his experiences on the cutting edge art and of artists of the period. He also offers his opinions on the state of art today under the glare of media and commercial pressures. The artists are as varied as Warhol, Haring, Cristos and Basquiat and all forms of art are discussed. Celant focuses on the both movements and on the artists outside of them. His insightful, sometimes controversial, articles, along with many photographs, will fascinate students of both art and twentieth-century culture. Distributed by Rizzoli.
