The Coral Mind the Coral Mind: Adrian Stokes's Engagement with Art History, Criticism, Archadrian Stokes's Engagement with Art History, Criticism, Ar (Penn State Press)
by Stephen Bann
Synopses & Reviews Our view of modernism in the arts has been largely shaped by the prominence of painting and, in particular, by a succession of major painters working in Parisfrom Courbet and Manet to the Cubists. Moreover, modernist aesthetics has come to be equated with the concept of formalism, which has been both advocated and attacked in the critical roster of the twentieth century. Adrian Stokes offered a singular critical voice challenging us to think differently about modernism. Guided by his personal interpretation of the early Renaissance and by insights derived from psychoanalytic theory, Stokes developed his own style of communicating the truths of aesthetic experience.
