Inhaltsangabe

"Like the great German critic Walter Benjamin, Rosenberg is a master of dialectics whose sense of art is continuous with his sense of society, and (also like Benjamin) bears no taint of compromised, out-of-work radicalism. Instead, his radicalism is very much at work, enabling him to spot and skewer fallacies, false logic and the camouflaged nudity that is a large part of the art emperor's new wardrobe. [The De-definition of Art] detects with great sensitivity the forces that are deflecting and pressuring art in the direction of esthetic and moral nullity."—Jack Kroll, Newsweek

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Harold Rosenberg (1906-1978) was one of the foremost New York intellectuals of the mid-twentieth century. He was an art critic for The New Yorker from 1962 until 1978. Rosenberg, together with Clement Greenberg, radically reshaped the interpretation of art in the post-World-War-II period by promoting and examining abstract expression. He was a professor in the Committee on Social Thought at the University of Chicago from 1966 until his death.
