Dust jacket, with a slightly sunned spine (bold & legible titles), protected in a mylar cover. "In Danto's view, Andy Warhol's Brillo Box was not only a radical attack on traditional definitions of the art work; it brought the history of Western art to a close. In this collection of interconnected essays, he grapples with this and many more of the most challenging issues in art today, from the problems of contemporary pluralism to the dilemmas of censorship and state support for artists." - Publisher.. 1st. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. 8vo.
