Opis

In an age where art history's questions are expected to receive answers, this work embraces doubt as a critical tool and asks how particular histories of art have come to be. It is a study of the tension between practicing art and practicing criticism.

Recenzje

"Overall, Doubt is a major contribution, both to art history and to the history of art history. Schiff's emepathy with art and artists, his subtle and intricate understanding of how thought and making are intertwined, means that it could be a contribution to contemporary practice as well." --caa.reviews
