Art criticism is spurned by universities, but widely produced and read. It is seldom theorized and its history has hardly been investigated. The State of Art Criticism presents an international conversation among art historians and critics that considers the relation between criticism and art history and poses the question of whether criticism may become a university subject. Contributors include Dave Hickey, James Panero, Stephen Melville, Lynne Cook, Michael Newman, Whitney Davis, Irit Rogoff, Guy Brett and Boris Groys.

In 2001, art critic and historian Benjamin Buchloh declared the 'death of art criticism' during the October journal's roundtable, "The Present Conditions of Art Criticism." The following decade witnessed a plethora of articles, conferences, and books devoted to the crisis of criticism--all efforts thus far seem to have failed, the crisis has not been abated. Art criticism is decaying and our historical moment is not only "post-modern" but also "post-critical." At the same time, art writing has become such a broad spectrum of "literature" that neither author nor reader take it seriously--the writing is often ironic, filled with joyful and mediocre immediacy, and not to mention, a proud ahistoricism. We are also told, however, that this is a great moment for culture: writings on film, music, and art are to be found everywhere you turn or click. The Internet has allowed the democratization of cultural production: anyone can upload a film to YouTube or a track to MySpace--everyone has a voice, everyone has a blog, and everyone is a critic. Under quickly changing conditions, then, what are the present tasks of aspiring art critics? This undertaking is multilayered but it must begin with an understanding the crisis of criticism in its contemporary and historical expressions. In the first two sections, the thesis surveys the symptoms of the illness: how art criticism has been unable to grasp the swift changes in the art world and how the curator, the dealer and the collector have replaced the critic as the main mediators between art and its public. The third section outlines how contemporary art criticism, largely anti-Greenbergian and anti-modern, suffers from "the flight from judgment." In the fourth section, I explain how Art criticism was displaced with the emergence of art practices in the 1960s that thought to incorporate criticism into the work itself. All are important, and often contradictory considerations when seeking to understand the demise of art criticism, but, all are not equally important for the task of resurrecting and redeeming criticism. The final part will dedicate itself to the future of criticism in light of its history. It will investigate and introduce possible paths for the reconstitution of art criticism, suggesting possibilities exist in the overlooked history of earlier art criticism.

Since the mid-1980s, Arthur C. Danto has been increasingly concerned with the implications of the demise of modernism. Out of the wake of modernist art, Danto discerns the emergence of a radically pluralistic art world. His essays illuminate this novel art world as well as the fate of criticism within it. As a result, Danto has crafted the most compelling philosophy of art criticism since Clement Greenberg. Gregg Horowitz and Tom Huhn analyze the constellation of philosophical and critical elements in Danto's new- Hegelian art theory. In a provocative encounter, they employ themes from Kantian aesthetics to elucidate the continuing persistence of taste in shaping even this most sophisticated philosophy of art.

Art criticism was once passionate, polemical and judgmental: now critics are more often interested in ambiguity, neutrality, and nuanced description. And while art criticism is ubiquitous in newspapers, magazines, and exhibition brochures, it is also virtually absent from academic writing. Here, James Elkins surveys the last fifty years of art criticism, proposing some interesting explanations for these startling changes.

This study is an analysis of 'high' and 'late' modernist criticism in New York during the 1960s and early 1970s. Through a close reading of a selection of key critics of the period—which will expand the remit beyond the canonical texts—the book examines the ways that modernist criticism’s discourse remains of especial disciplinary interest. Despite its alleged narrowness and exclusion, the debates of the 1960s raised fundamental questions concerning the nature of art writing. Those include arguments around the nature of value and judgement; the relationship between art criticism and art history; and the related problem of what we mean by the ‘contemporary.’ Stephen Moonie argues that within those often-fractious debates, there exists a shared discourse. And further, contrary to the current consensus that modernists were elitist, dogmatic, and irrelevant to contemporary debates on art, the study shows that there is much that we can learn from reconsidering their writings. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, modern art, art criticism, and literary studies.

How is art criticism to be understood within an expanding artistic field? A look at its history and its manifestations within globalized conditions shows the variety of the genre, of the criteria and of the styles of writing. This reader is an attempt to bring a diverse range of art-critical voices and perspectives into conversation with each other, with texts from the 18th century to the present. The editors Beate Söntgen and Julia Voss have invited colleagues from various geographical and intellectual backgrounds to present and discuss the art critics of their choice, choosing one example from their respective bodies of work to comment upon. How have these writers approached art criticism? Which styles do they employ? What makes them extraordinary? What can we learn from their writings today, and why is it important in its contemporary context? BEATE SÖNTGEN (*1963) is professor of art history at Leuphana University Lüneburg. She studied art history, philosophy, and modern German literature in Marburg and Berlin. She is director of the DFG Research Training Group "Cultures of Critique: Forms, Media, Effects" and co-director of the program "PriMus - Doctoral Studies in Museums." JULIA VOSS (*1974) is an honorary professor at Leuphana University Lüneburg. She studied art history, modern German literature, and philosophy in Berlin and London. She is herself an art critic and journalist and was deputy head of the arts section of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
