Bernard Smiths's published writings on art extend over fifty years. In this selection of critical essays, arranged chronologically, he shows how--from the study of original works he admired--he developed a pluralistic critical practice based on form and meaning. Discussing every important artist from the period, the writings reveal how Smith related his criticism to particular ethical, social, and political concerns that affected both artist and layperson.
