Bad New Days by Hal Foster
Bad New Days
Deft, opinionated, Foster is one of those rare art theorists whose measured prose can engage a wider readership, cutting through the philosophical inflationism that afflicts much of the higher gossip among art critics* Guardian *
Foster's latest book, Bad New Days, attempts to recover the idea of an avant-garde after a hard half-century of infighting, obfuscation, rivalry, and successive failures to engage with the real world of politics. * Harper's *
Foster's strength lies in his erudite attention to those artists that have emerged as definitive of their particular moment. -- Mostafa Heddaya * Artinfo *
