Abstraction by Andrew Benjamin

Abstraction by Andrew Benjamin

Abstraction has not only been an important 20th-century art form, it has also given rise to one of the most significant and influential schools of criticism. This work seeks to offer different interpretations of abstraction. Texts by important current philosophers and critics, including Jean-Francois Lyotard, Stan Allen, John Rajchman, Andrew Benjamin, Maia Damianovic, John Lechte, Nick Millett and David Moos accompany features on work by some of the leading artists working currently in the field of abstraction, including Albert Ayme, Lydia Dona, David Reed, Fabian Marcaccio, Therese Oulton and Jessica Stockholder.
