Currentartpics Makes it to the Top

Good art criticism cannot be reduced to opinion, but as writing it is no less personal for that. CAP stands out in particular as a writer who has found in this very specific form a way of unveiling the sense of art - its touch - beneath the address of words. Refusing to distort or pervert the image as the lure, CAP will only provide links that burst out from beneath descriptive words. It is an extremely pleasurable way to read, and I have found CAP's description to build from this viewing experience into a well-earned judgment upon the work.

Be sure to visit Currentartpics for CAP's last post, a comparison of Olafur Eliasson and Jorge Pardo. In the end CAP writes of Pardo: "The work accommodates all, in part, and yet functions undercut by style and situation at some point immobilize the immersed observer. Where nothing is quite used or useable and style is never settled, the work engulfs its surroundings, blurs its boundaries and includes the observer, only to exclude a vantage point. We regard more stylistically there, but only by retreating from any familiar function, in the end style too dissolves under the withdrawal."

As the 100th, this is CAP's final post. Congratulations!
