- Summary:
- In this volume a distinguished group of art historians reflect on the work of Michael Baxandall both in temps of its importance for their own formation and its location in the development of a new art history. The volume deploys the meaning of the word 'about' both as an adverb and a preposition to weave a tissue of readings through and around the writing of Baxandall. Working critically, analytically, and through analogy the essays rethink Baxandall's positions alongside those of Aby Warburg and Walter Benjamin, Marcel Duchamp and Donald Judd. Alternatively they historicize his thinking in a context of modern ethnographic, sociological and feminist methodologies, and concepts such as material culture or artistic production.
