Book Synopsis The Rebirth of Painting in the Late Twentieth Century by : Donald Burton Kuspit
Book excerpt: The Rebirth of Painting in the Late Twentieth Century examines the continued validity and variety of painting in the postmodern era. Bringing a psychological perspective to the issues, Donald Kuspit argues that painting remains the premiere medium of the visual arts. He discusses a range of representational and abstract painting in the United States and Europe by artists such as Gregory Amenoff, Vincent Desiderio and Odd Nerdrum, and also examines works by Picasso, Mondrian, Pollock, Johns, and Soutine, among others, with an eye to reevaluating their art historical significance.
