Here's a list of books written in the 1950's by the Theodore Shaw whom Michael just mentioned:
*Hypocrisy about art, and what you don't gain by it. *Precious rubbish, as raked out of current criticism and commented on *Art reconstructed, a new theory of aesthetics, *Critical quackery why critics are guilty of it, and how to see through it. *Don't get taught art this way as so many people do. *Art's endurance *War on critics. *The hypocrisies of criticism *Art at a price, a new approach to aesthetics *How the Metropolitan Museum misteaches art *Art and arsenic : how you are being murdered by an important party. *The gross mis-teaching of art by our greatest museum. *How the Metropolitan Museum's white lies turn black. *How to conjecture art and not be a wise guy. What a prophet! (even if he's obviously addressing a middle-brow audience -- which was probably a fatal flaw) Almost all of them were published by the Stuart Gallery, Boston. Is anyone on this list familiar with that institution ? ____________________________________________________________ Click to become a master chef, own a restaurant and make millions. http://thirdpartyoffers.netzero.net/TGL2231/fc/PnY6rc1mKyemLaIZ2LgEYRY2Z6ufM1 9V7UF3D1kytbbG5yzyWiayQ/
