The purpose of this volume is to bring together some of the best recent critical essays on the new art in the United States. Most of these articles date from after 1960, and were originally published in periodicals and museum catalogues. But in keeping with the new role of the critic as interpreter, the pieces included in this anthology do more than simply describe, or even define their subject; their authors are actively and consciously engaged in the preparation of a new aesthetic. This is a unique collection that will be indispensable to all who wish to understand more about the new art in America. Gregory Battcock is editor of several anthologies of criticism in the fine arts, including The New Art, Minimal Art, The New American Cinema, and The New Music. He is Special Correspondent for Arts Magazine and New York Correspondent for Art and Artists. Critical essays by Mr. Battcock have been published in Art in America, Domus, and The Art Journal. He teaches at William Paterson College in New Jersey and is general editor of the Dutton series called "Documents in Modern Art Criticism."
