Description
Summary:"Arthur C. Danto argues here that Andy Warhol's 'Brillo Box' of 1964 brought the established trajectory of Western art to an end and gave rise to a pluralism which ha schanged the way art is made, perceived, and exhibited.

They also grapple with the most challenging issues in art today, including censorship and state support of artists"--Back Cover.
