From Avant Garde to Pluralism: An On-The-Spot-History is an overview written at-the-moment of the evolution of modern art in the second half of the 20th century. Irving Sandler was a trend-spotter, and insider, and an accomplice in the art world. The artists were his friends and collaborators.Here, assembled for the first time, is a selection of Sandler's seminal writings from half a century ago to the present. These essays chronicle the sweeping changes in Modern Art, from the isms of 1950's and 60's - Abstract Expressionism, Pop and Minimalism - to the pluralism, where the artist tends to reject the idea of being part of a group, that has dominated the art world for the last thirty years.
