Description
Pollock and After: The Critical Debate explores the key debates surrounding Abstract Expressionism and Modernist art history. This revised edition brings together essential writings that shed light on post-war American art and culture. The collection is divided into three parts, each with an introduction by Francis Frascina. Part One features foundational articles by Clement Greenberg, while Part Two examines revisionist writers who challenged established ideas about Modernist art history. The third part introduces recent developments in revisionist critiques, exploring the work of Greenberg's contemporaries and the relationship between critical and commercial responses to Abstract Expressionism. This collection provides a nuanced understanding of post-war American art and culture, challenging assumptions about ethnicity, gender, and sexuality in the construction of the 'post-war American artist'.
