Wake of Art
Summary
Arthur C. Danto has been increasingly concerned with the implications of the demise of modernism, and out of the wake of modernist art has suggested that a radically pluralistic art world has emerged. His essays here discuss his vision of the art world and the implications it has for criticism.
Wake of Art Summary
Wake of Art Reviews
An excellent philosopher...A humanist is exactly what Danto is, and an enormously broad-minded one at that...One reads Danto because he really tries to throw the most positive light possible on the output of artists...I would venture that Danto is probably the most erudite writer regularly reviewing contemporary art, at least in English, and maybe in any language. -- Bookforum
Danto is an ideal critic for those who do not revel in mere paint...He's unbeatable at what he does...Danto offers a kind of access to art that few other critics do. -- The New York Times Book Review
