home catalog ordering Peter Schjeldahl ISBN 0-935724-68-0 from the Preface It is a game of masks: an "I" tricked out differently for each performance. Criticism at its best is a performing art, a minor, lively art like musicals or stand-up comedy. It makes something out of something, unlike the major arts that make something out of nothing. To avoid being enslaved by any one idea, I try to have thousands of them. My nightmare audience is of people who do not laught or, if they do, give no value to laughter. How does one negotiate the ridiculousness of criticism without jokes? One does not. Jokes are a lubricant without which the machine seizes up and breaks down. I choose to think that people who expect unrelieved gravity in a critic are crazy, hence deserving of wary comparision. A critic who feels no anguish in relating to artists is a prostitute. A critic who never relates to artists, fearing contamination, is a virgin. Neither knows a thing about love. Experience is the only book of art.

home catalog ordering Peter Schjeldahl The 7 Days Art Columns ISBN 0-935724-41-9 From the preface by the author My tenure as chief art critic of 7 Days , from the Manhattan weekly's birth in March, 1988, to its sudden death in April, 1990, coincided with a period of growing muddle and malaise in New York, a sense of all-around entropy that I noted in my first column and that seems sadly confirmed by 7 Days' demise (though the proximate cause of that event was the impatience of the magazine's billionaire owner). I enjoyed the job immensely. The experience of hitting the streets every week with my most immediately burning opinions and pleasures suited me fine, and any true New Yorker can tell you that dire omens are as often a goad as a deterrent to the spirit of enjoyment in our passionately perverse town. At its best, weekly journalism seems to me a model of how to live in a city: with pried-open responsiveness to the fleeting moment (the moment, even, of overtaxed exhaustion). Column-writing, in particular, should amplify the non-stop, irascible, funny, serious talk that is the sweetest city music. "It was like every week you wrote a letter to your friends," artist Jane Kaplowitz has said to me. If it comes across that way, wonderfulkeeping in mind that in a column the "friends" addresses are people you've never met or the unexpressed sides, hidden from you, of those you know. That's part of what distinguishes sitting down to write instead of reaching for the telephone.

An essay from an exhibition catalogue of Kain Tapper's, Chicago 1995 A Universal Finn By Peter Schjeldahl There are three spatial orders of aesthetic contemplation: background, middleground, and foreground. The background is our environment. It is the order of architecture. The foreground, within arm's reach, is the order of objects. The middleground, at which our powers of sight function with maximum efficiency, is the order of presences. Anything in the middleground that it not otherwise explicable might be deemed "art." We "look at" things in the middleground. We "see" things in the background. Our eyesight for things in the foreground is indistinct, partly giving over to touch and perhaps smell. Kain Tapper's sculptures physically inhabit the middleground, but their most telling effects, Tapper's gifts to experience, belong to the orders of background and foreground. American viewers may have trouble with Tapper. If there is an American Habit of perception, as I believe there is, it is relentlessly middlegrounding. We like having things, and also people, where we can look at them. For this purpose, we pull backgrounds forward (as quickly readable images in our architecture) and push foregrounds away (favoring spectacle over tactile qualities in our object design). Minimalist sculpture, an American invention, merges architecture and object in effects of sheer presence. Tapper's sculptures recede from and approach the eye, simultaneously.

News Features Reviews Books ... Horoscope girly grotesquerie by Peter Schjeldahl Manifest Destiny Big Little Laura Now You Can Dance Shrugs ... Loved Lisa Yuskavage, Marianne Boesky Gallery, 51 Greene Street, Sept. 11-Oct. 10, 1998, New York, N.Y. 10012. Lisa Yuskavage is an extravagantly deft painter in oils of cartoonish, often anatomically impossible bimbos, nymphets and other female travesties with hyper-charged libidos and the self-esteem of cat litter. Most are young, but even the more adult ones ooze moist innocence. They would be pathetic if we could pity them or contemptible if we could scorn them. As it is, the paintings rule out such comfortable responses. To behold Yuskavage's creatures is to dive into an existential soup with them. Yuskavage's pictorial universe, an important development in recent art, seems suffused with oddly passive loathing. Like static electricity, the work's grotesquerie yields voltage without amperage an energy that causes shocks when touched by the mind but that can't be drawn off to turn on bright-idea light-bulbs. As for standard check-lists of gender issues and so on, the critic Lane Relyea has said it well: "To attribute a critical position to Yuskavage's canvases seems a cowardly response, like reigning in outlaws by deputizing them." The intelligent way to look at this art is dumbly.
