Editorial Reviews

Review

In revealing Dorner's thinking in unprecedented depth and breadth, the volume's aim is to move him squarely into the mainstream, in part by emphasizing that contemporary culture has finally caught up with him.—Bookforum—

Review

Alexander Dorner offered a holistic vision that integrated a critical approach to art history, museum curating, and education with a broader understanding of the specific changes that define modern society. This significant publication thoughtfully reveals how Dorner's view is unique within his generation and still a great source of inspiration for museum curators and educators today.

―Steven ten Thije, Curator, Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven
