Resumen:
New Spirit, New Sculpture, New Money: Art in the 1980s. Richard Cork is one of the most serious, most influential, and best-informed art critics in Britain today. Responsive to many of the most memorable emergent artists of the 1980s, Cork welcomed the fresh energy channeled into working beyond the confines of the gallery. He hit out passionately at the threat to art education, the imposition of museum entry charges and other destructive aspects of 'the Orwellian decade'. Writing in Time Out, Mark Haworth-Booth praised Cork as 'a committed, attacking and articulate writer'. Those qualities are well to the fore throughout this immensely readable and stimulating book. |
