Reviews

[Brianna · Rating 5 out of 5]

genius book about painting and desire and drawing and painting as philosophically different categories of representation.

[Troy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Horribly written, but beautifully argued, Lichtenstein shows how color has been disparaged, reviled and belittled throughout the majority of Western history. This is a fantastic book of art theory and history; one that you should search out.
