Here is what people are saying about the Theories and Documents of Contemporary Art: A Sourcebook of Artists' Writings (California Studies in the History of Art ; 35)
5 Star Rating  "More Would be Less"2009-01-24
- Reviewed By Tapery from USA
This book is a good example of where "more would be less." The book is quite long but the quoted material for each artist is well selected and woven into a bigger picture. I have found it interesting to read what many different artists considered important at approximately the same time. If as some have mentioned here the editors had included more material for each individual artists this bigger picture could easily be lost. This book has become an important part of my art library as is.
 
3 Star Rating  "great writings"2008-12-30
- Reviewed By John in Omaha from Omaha, NE
This book has some great writings from both critics and artists. I would recommend this to an artist, especially if you're looking for some direction. Helpful information from some of the best.
Some of the articles are a bit hard to read but I found many of them to be excellent reads.
 
2 Star Rating  "Not enough coherence"2008-11-06
- Reviewed By artist/tyrant from New York, NY USA
Although the list of artists is impressive, the entries by each are often so short that no coherent thought surfaces. It takes a very skilled interviewer or fantastic didactic vision on the part of the artist to arrive at a genuinely insightful piece of writing, like "On Art" by Rodin [excellent]. Also fairly good are David Sylvester's interviews of Bacon and others.

Many of the entries in this book are meant to actually BE THE ART. Such writings can be interesting, but often fail, falling into a category of minimalist authorship. I found this book did not aid my search for profundity and revelation with regard to the artistic process.
 
5 Star Rating  "'I think' the book is great"2008-09-24
- Reviewed By An Amazon User
I 'think' the book is great, i 'say' this because until today i still haven't receive it the book. What i'm so p*** off it is the shipping duration. I've paid a hefty sum to buy some of my books here, but i mean the service (shipping) is so crappy. It's high time Amazon stepped up their service! If any of the management tend to read this, please, please, please, please, please do something about this! Its about a month now but i still haven't received my first (book) order!!!!!!!
 
4 Star Rating  "Worth it"2008-02-05
- Reviewed By An Amazon User
I had to buy this in college and it was torture for homework assignments. However, it is now enjoying a second life as the most useful text I have as an art teacher. (Aside from my art history books of course.)
 
4 Star Rating  "a super place to start"2007-08-26
- Reviewed By artdork
briefly - this is a great basic anthology if you want artist manifestos and excerpts from period art critics. my only complaint about this anthology is that it really doesn't have many of the writings/interivews that are well known from sources like artforum (e.g. smithson's yucatan mirror article) or partisan review (rauschenberg interview). but one can't have all things in one place - that said this is a great place to start.
