Editorial Reviews

Review

'This examination of critical reactions to Bacon is very welcome' - The Art Newspaper

Product Description

In this provocative and highly original interpretation of Bacon's art, the author offers close readings of significant works, discussing them in relationship to theories of schizophrenia, masculinity and contemporary literature, as well as issues of representation and visuality. By looking at the paintings in intricate detail and exploring their connections within cultural theory, Ernst van Alphen places Bacon in the context of contemporary critical debate.
