October
, the “Pictures Generation” artists and critics, and his evolving understanding of the art market, and how it impacts the thinking around art itself.
Along the way, he talks about his journey from a small town in Western Pennsylvania to the Off-Broadway theater world of New York in the '70s, and offers insights into his struggles grappling with the aesthetic and political contradictions haunting contemporary art then—as much as now. The interview, newly edited and updated, is published here for the first time and tells the intimate story of one of the most compelling minds in art theory and criticism.
