The Written World

Power, Kevin
9781843518327
Art honours the world, and criticism honours art, even - perhaps especially - when the critic sets out to destroy. The bad review is hardly ever written out of mere spite. In most cases, the motivation is disappointed idealism. Critics are people who love art and who hate to see it traduced. Hence the critic's sempiternal cry: You're doing it wrong. What the critic wants is for you to do it better. In You're Doing It Wrong, Kevin Power explains how he became a critic and what he thinks criticism is.
