>not knowing what the term "art book" means a genre
it's a pity you're never going to buy debord's memoires, because you really deserve that on your shelves.

>>8317652
i'd just throw it through a window anyway

Do they have a book with Romantic art or with Bosch's art?

>>8317656
debord would be proud.

>>8317664
Never mind I see they do.

>they think reading les situationistes et les lettristes in anything but french is gonna give them any insight about what they were saying

oh là là

>>8317684
>he thinks imagist bauhaus and the london psychogeographical society weren't the first people debord invited to alba

the staple: art since 1900
anything greenberg (avant garde and kitsch is a must)
art history vs aesthetics
against interpretation by sontag
painting as model by yve alain-bois
anything rosalind krauss
relational aesthetics by bourriard
winckelmann, wollflin, panofksy, hauser, tj clark, warburg, didi-huberman etc

>>8317735
>no foster
uwot

>>8317741
yea, should be a given after reading art since 1900. just read anything by the octoberists tbqhwy

>>8317754

kek

>what is variety

>>8317785
if you were trying for less than a surface understanding of art history, you succeeded, but that is not synonymous with variety.

>>8317792
sure. i'm glad i'm out of grad school, so many fuckers like you, jesus.

>>8317805
you compared hal foster to the octoberists, you deserve to be shat on from a great height. you also thought "art books"="art theory books". i hope it wasn't an art/design/art history grad program, because if it was you should be demanding all your money back and suing your undergrad school too.

>>8317721
>no one gets your epic puns

a pun is not a pun if it isnt shared.

>>8317301
imo, Hatje Cantz is the best publishing house specializing in art books

>>8317735
HAL FUCKING FOSTER
HITO STEYERL

You can easily torrent every Taschen book in existence. I would guess the force majeure behind owning them is to showcase that you pay attention to _______, and trendiness of course.

Where do you reckon? Checked a lot of the normal places.

I got the Phaidon one on Bosch. Picture quality is ok, though in a smaller format then Taschen. Not an expert in the area at all but I enjoyed Laurinda Dixon's write up.

>>8319483
Not him but Rutracker has a 10gb torrent. Only goes up to 2013 though, I don't think it has everything before it either but it's a start.
