About this copy
A landmark anthology for anyone serious about modern art. Harrison and Wood gathered more than 300 texts from artists, critics, philosophers and writers, arranged in eight sections running from the legacy of Symbolism to the debates around the Postmodern. Each text comes with its own introduction, and the volume closes with an extensive bibliography.
Thomas Crow and Michael Fried both praised it as an unequalled resource, and it remains a standard reference for students and general readers alike. This is the paperback edition, a later printing from the reprint run of 1993-1994. It has a handy, durable format for study and reference.
Condition
- Book
- Good – the binding is firm and the text is clean and complete. The front cover has some rubbing and a bumped, creased top-right corner, and there is light marking to the back cover. The title page carries an institutional annotation ('Sussex Institute Resource Room').
- Dust jacket
- None (paperback).
A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
Collector's notes
- A comprehensive, scholarly collection of twentieth-century art theory.
- Published by Blackwell, Oxford and Cambridge, 1992 (US edition 1993).
- Later printing from the 1993-1994 reprint run; not a first printing.
- Paperback edition, ISBN 0-631-16575-4.
