Arts Prospect2003

"In Art's Prospect, Mr. Kimball observes that most of the really invigorating action in the art world today is a quiet affair. It takes place not at the Tate Modern in London or at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, not in the Chelsea of TriBeCa galleries, but off to one side, out of the limelight. It usually involves not the latest thing but permanent things - they can be new or old, but their relevance is measured not by the buzz they create but by the silence they inspire."--Jacket.
