Críticas

"A remarkable book. At once a tour through the last four years in the art world, a philosophical disquisition on culture and history, and a piece of good writing."--Jane Mendelsohn, "The Village Voice

Reseña del editor

Since 1984, when he became art critic for The Nation, Arthur C. Danto, one of America's most inventive and influential philosophers, has also emerged as one of our most important critics of art. As an essayist, Danto's style is at once rigorous, incisive, and playful. Encounters and Reflections brings together many of his recent critical writings--on artists such as Andy Warhol, David Hockney, and Robert Mapplethorpe; and on the significance of issues like the masterpiece and the museum. The result is a spirited brief from the front lines of current aesthetic and philosophical debate.
