2.0 out of 5 stars
A book which tells nothing but the IDEA OF STEWART HOME,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Neoist Manifestos/The Art Strike Papers (Paperback)
I should qualify my comments regarding Stewart Home's book by stressing that the overwhelming impression I got as expressed above is by the book as a whole; I reserve my enthusiasm for a lot of his work including pieces reprinted here from SMILE, etc. which I've always liked and still find valid, (whatever that means). However, even those lose their edge when flattened into the rhetoric of this book and the more recent pieces seem to turn into mush on their own. I think Stewart Home's quite cleverly pre-empted a wide variety of specific, (ie. ideological, academic) criticism by heading it off at every turn, but I don't find that very interesting, at least not any more. It just strikes me as a very tight, boring, little orbit. In the end, I think it's fair to criticise the book as a whole, as I don't see anything holding these pieces together except the idea of Stewart Home
