Mark Tansey : visions and revisions
Danto, Arthur Coleman (, 1924-)
Mark Tansey : visions and revisions / Arthur C. Danto - New York : Harry N. Abrams, Inc. , 1992 - 142 p. : illus. ; 31 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
In a monochromatic style, American painter Mark Tansey teases the viewer with images that explode into paradoxes. Spiked with allusions ranging from John Ruskin to Albert Einstein, Tansey's wryly subversive pictures mock the avant-garde, parody Jacques Derrida's theme of the world as text and reiterate the inexhaustible possiblities of pictorial space. In this illustrated monograph, Danto, art critic of the Nation and professor of philosophy at Columbia University, places Tansey within a tradition, extending from Velazquez to Magritte, of artists who probe the philosophy of picture-making.
