The Author of The Bonfire of the Vanities Exposes the Myths and Men of Modern Art. ALSO KNOWN AS: Excerpts appeared in the Washington Star News June 1975 and in the Book Digest September 1975. SYNOPSIS: DOWN WITH CULTUREBURG! DOWN WITH THE GURU CRITICS! From the fuliginous flatness of the fifties to the pop op minimal sixties, right on through the now-you-see-it-now-you-don't seventies, Tom Wolfe debunks the great American myth of modern art in an incandescent, hilarious and devastating blast. The Painted Word is scandalous! Tom Wolfe is generally regarded as one of the most brilliant observers of the American social scene. Since the mid-sixties, when postwar affluent America exploded into radically different lifestyles and subcultures, Wolfe has been its faithful chronicler with a steady stream of books-The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, The Pump House Gang, Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers, The Painted Word, The Right Stuff, From Bauhaus to Our House, and, most recently, Bonfire of The Vanities. He grew up in Richmond, Virginia, received a doctorate in American Studies from Yale University, and now lives in New York City.
