In this essential new addition to James Elkinss series Theories of Modernism and Postmodernism in the Visual Arts, Richard Shiff embraces doubt as a critical tool and asks how particular histories of art have come to be.Shiffs turn to doubt is not a retreat to relativism, but rather an insistence on clear thinking about art. In particular, Shiff takes issue with the style of self-referential art writing seemingly 'licensed' by Roland Barthes. With an introduction by Rosie Bennett, Doubt is a study of the tension between practicing art and practicing criticism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972101210400,"sku":"NEW0415973090","price":47.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61m-q33PWPL.jpg?v=1783792241","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/doubt-theories-of-modernism-and-postmodernism-in-the-visual-arts-0415973090","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
