  • More about Ends of Art Criticism

The Ends of Art Criticism argues that the lack of a single dominant voice in criticism is a strength, allowing previously marginalised voices and new global and political perspectives to come to the fore. It is an essential book for anyone interested in contemporary art criticism.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 144 pages
Publication date: 04 March 2021
Publisher: Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd


In a time when there are persistent assertions about the impending demise of art criticism, The Ends of Art Criticism aims to debunk these misconceptions by contending that the absence of a single dominant voice in criticism is not, as some perceive, a weakness, but rather a strength. This enables previously marginalized voices and fresh global and political perspectives to emerge. A must-read for anyone interested in contemporary art criticism, The Ends of Art Criticism benefits from the author's 30 years of experience as the editor of Art Monthly magazine, which grants her the ability to provide opinionated and thought-provoking insights into the numerous questions and debates surrounding current critical writing on art. These topics include the relationship between artists and critics, the academicization of critical discourse, and the relationship between art history and criticism.
