Uncontrollable Beauty

by David Shapiro and Bill Beckley

An art anthology about beauty. In this collection of essays, a group of artists, critics and literati offer their reflections on the question of beauty - past, present and future. The range of these works encompasses Meyer Schapiro's sceptical argument on perfection, contributions from artists as profound as Louise Bourgeois and Agnes Martin, and reflections of critics, curators and philosophers on the problems of beauty and relativism. The volume also contains the insights of some of today's innovative art theorists, such as Dave Hickey, Jeremy Gilbert-Rolfe, Peter Schjeldahl and Julia Kristeva, as well as the writings of critics such as Arthur Danto, Donald Kuspit and Carter Ratcliff. These writers and thinkers underline how the sense of beauty today is an inescapable domain of multiple perspectives.
