The end of art criticism

Is art criticism dead?

When the media is full of art market news and gallery marketing advertisements,

When art stars are constantly being created and sought after,

Amidst the many gorgeous smoke screens,

Where should art criticism go from here? How to adhere to the core value spirit?

Author Patricia. In "The End of Art Criticism", Bix attempts to raise observations and concerns about the current situation of contemporary art criticism.

When art critics are not in crisis, but reaching consensus and compromise, it’s time to worry! Curators have replaced art critics. There is no objective standard for art critics or reviewers. Nowadays, art criticism has lost its position and has become another form of news. The voice of art critics has been drowned out by the noise on the Internet and is no longer was heard.

Patricia. Bix has been the editor of the British professional art magazine "Art Monthly" for more than thirty years. He has commented on many current issues and controversies in critical art writing, including reflections on the nature of art, reflections on the relationship between artists and art critics, criticism Issues such as the academicization of sexual discourse and the relationship between art history and art criticism are combined with the current situation, contradictions and dilemmas of today's art criticism, and provide clear and thought-provoking observations and insights.
