Lance Esplund, a well-known American art critic and curator, a columnist for the New York newspaper The Wall Street Journal, summarizes his experience of acquaintance with the art of modernism and postmodernism in this book. His text, based on live audience impressions, takes the reader into the world of artistic creativity, as if into an unknown country, the language of which is all the more difficult to understand and study because it is constantly changing. Among the heroes of the book, whose works are especially important for the author, are Kazimir Malevich, Marcel Duchamp, Richard Serra, Marina Abramovich and other artists.
