Book
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. This magnificent book of art criticism by a leading thinker in the field of cultural analysis is "The New Subjectivism : Art in the 1980s" by Donald Kuspit. With a Foreword by Diane Waldman, this is the trade paperback reprint published by Da Capo Press. It's the First Da Capo Printing, issued in 1993. In her Foreword, Diane Waldman says: " Donald Kuspit illuminates some of the most pressing issues in the art and culture of our time. In tackling a bold range of subjects, he brings a new and provocative voice to contemporary criticism. His psychoanalytical approach tells us much about both the artist and his or her art. It is also particularly relevant to an art that has returned to a form of representation and to subjects that deal with some of the more disturbing aspects of our interior and exterior world."
