La historia del arte, entendiéndose como investigación, ordenación e interpretación de los sucesos artísticos dentro de la historia, implica un sentido crítico, de ahí que se puede determinar que todo historiador del arte es y debe ser crítico. Por otra parte, la crítica de arte se encarga de estudiar y valorar las innovaciones en el ámbito del arte, por ello, siempre ha estado más cercana al arte contemporáneo de cada época; de este modo, existe la historia de la critica de arte, con la finalidad de conocer su desarrollo, procedimiento y estudio comparado unas épocas con otras. Por ello, para ser un buen crítico, hay que tener un bagaje histórico muy amplio, para poder determinar los cambios que se dan en el fenómeno artístico.
The art world has become a point of contention within a range of debates and yet, strangely enough, while art criticism has been discussed at length, very little is said about art critics. Following in the footsteps of Lionello Venturi’s History of Art Criticism, in the current volume Lorente provides an updated reassessment of the great art critics from the Enlightenment down to the turn of the millennium. Conceived as a didactic handbook with a recommended bibliography at the end of each chapter, this concise work tells the history of a profession in permanent crisis, while also paying homage to its most infl uential practitioners in different cultural contexts.
In The Politics of Taste Ana María Reyes examines the works of Colombian artist Beatriz González and Argentine-born art critic, Marta Traba, who championed González's art during Colombia's National Front coalition government (1958–74). During this critical period in Latin American art, artistic practice, art criticism, and institutional objectives came into strenuous yet productive tension. While González’s triumphant debut excited critics who wanted to cast Colombian art as modern, sophisticated, and universal, her turn to urban lowbrow culture proved deeply unsettling. Traba praised González's cursi (tacky) recycling aesthetic as daringly subversive and her strategic localism as resistant to U.S. cultural imperialism. Reyes reads González's and Traba's complex visual and textual production and their intertwined careers against Cold War modernization programs that were deeply embedded in the elite's fear of the masses and designed to avert Cuban-inspired revolution. In so doing, Reyes provides fresh insights into Colombia's social anxieties and frustrations while highlighting how interrogations of taste became vital expressions of the growing discontent with the Colombian state.
