About
American art theorist Hal Foster discusses his new book Bad New Days: Art, Criticism, Emergency (Verso, 2015). His new work examines the evolution of art and criticism in Western Europe and North America over the last twenty-five years, exploring their dynamic relation to the general condition of emergency instilled by neoliberalism and the war on terror.
