The book will well service readers already familiar with some of the revisionist literature on Abstract Expressionism and best reward specialists familiar with the more recent responses to these revisionist accounts. * Oxford Art Journal *\u003cbr\u003eThe scope and ambitions of \u003ci\u003eRereading Abstract Expressionism\u003c\/i\u003e is very different, but also very clear and powerful ... \u003ci\u003eRereading Abstract Expressionism\u003c\/i\u003e is an important contribution to the study of abstract expressionism and its one-sided reception in post-Greenbergian years.
