Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st. xix, 420 pages, illustrations; 23 cm. Near fine. Tight, clean copy. Age toning. First Printing. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. Art critic for the LA Times. *** "Christopher Knight is the unprecedented five-time winner of the Chemical Bank Award for Disti…nguished Newspaper Art Criticism, and was a finalist for the 1990 Pulitzer Prize in criticism. Writing first for the Los Angeles Herald Examiner and now for the Los Angeles Times, Knight has developed a new journalistic approach to American art and culture, in which a radical defense of images stands alongside an incisive critique of cultural institutions. Among the 129 essays and reviews collected here are individual writings on internationally important historical figures, such as Rembrandt van Rijn, Tung Ch'i Ch'ang, and douard Manet; contemporary American masters like Edward Ruscha and Mike Kelley; and significant artists virtually forgotten today, such as California's Henrietta Shore and Mexico's Hermenegildo Bustos. Articles address politically motivated attacks on the NEA; the sculpture commissioned as the Vietnam Women's Memorial; Ariana Huffington's cynical biography of Picasso; the emergence of Los Angeles, birthplace of America's distinctive suburban sprawl, as a cultural powerhouse; the criticism of Time magazine's Robert Hughes and The New Criterion's Hilton Kramer; and a wide variety of museum exhibitions, both large and small." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: ARTISTS: Peter Alexander; Charles Arnoldi, Laddie John Dill; John Baldessari; Hannelore Baron; Billy Al Bengston; Wallace Berman; Elmer Bischoff; Lee Bontecou; Jonathan Borofsky; Chris Burden; Hermenegildo Bustos; Vija Celmins; Larry Clark; Ron Davis; Roy Dowell; Lorser Feitelson, Helen Lundeberg; Eric Fischl; Judy Fiskin; Helen Frankenthaler; Frank O.
