5.0 out of 5 stars Hughes is a master of the critical review., 22 Sep 2008
By PH (Reading - UK) - See all my reviews
The big problem with 'Nothing If Not Critical' is that it highlights the paucity of intelligent art criticism currently available. This book is an absolute delight and one that should be carried around to lift the spirits and to return one's personal focus of attention onto the artworks and not the monetary value of artworks.
