Changing States

Critical Difference: Art Criticism and Art History. The discipline of art history has been critiqued by feminist and postcolonial scholars over the last 30 years, and has been increasingly challenged by advocates of the new discipline of visual culture. This roundtable discussion negotiates the state of this field and speculates on how we might start writing about art that 'differences' the canon.
