This dazzling volume comprises 69 essays by the eminent curator and critic David Sylvester, including important pieces on Picasso, Matisse, Bonnard, Mondrian, Johns, de Kooning, Warhol and Gilbert & George. His sustained investigations into the artists and their practice gives us piercing insights into the works and the artists themselves. This is not dry, remote, academic criticism- it has an immediacy and passion which leave one with an inspiring sense of the relevance and importance of art to life.
