Synopsis
In this book the author provides his
own history of what he sees as the devolution of modern art. He declares
that, since WW II modern art has been characterized by the primacy of
Theory. The main target of Wolfe is not so much the artists, as the
critics.

内容简介
《画出来的箴言》批判了现代艺术发展过程中某些虚伪可笑的现象:艺术被功利化,被用来欺蒙大众;富人们追求现代艺术只是赶时髦;艺术只是“图解文本”、臆造理论;艺术家被评论家的“一字箴言”牵着鼻子走……现代艺术领域被沃尔夫形容为一个自我陶醉、脱离大众的“文化村”。
沃尔夫的观点和评判是毫不客气的,他不愿遵守艺术界的陈规陋习,不用奉承和逢迎、委曲求全,敢于对权威发难,毕加索、沃霍尔、罗森伯格等人在他的文字中“原形毕露”,读来有趣而深刻,令人莞尔而又引人思索。
本书是一部成熟之作,沃尔夫在写作技巧和语言风格上都已经成型,《纽约时报》称赞本书“也许是沃尔夫迄今为止最为成功的社会批评之作”。
