The aesthete in the city : the philosophy and practice of American abstract painting in the 1980s

Author:	David Carrier
Publisher:	University Park, Pa. : Pennsylvania State University Press, ©1994.

Summary:	In The Aesthete in the City, David Carrier offers a personal view on the artistic activity of the 1980's. He begins with a theoretical perspective on the relationship beween two very different forms of artwriting: art criticism and art history writing. Carrier surveys the developments within theory during the 1980s, focusing on constructive critical analysis of the work of Jean Baudrillard, Walter Benjamin, T. J. Clark, and Jacques Derrida. He provides detailed accounts of a number of painters, among them Thomas Nozkowski, David Reed, and Sean Scully, whose development he followed closely. Carrier argues that Abstract Expressionism, provides the basis for an ongoing tradition of abstract painting, a rich system whose potential has not yet been exhausted. This book turns to the theory and practice of art criticism, concentrating on a concrete discussion of individual theorists and artists.  Read more...
