New Ricker Library project critiques the art critics

Reviewing the Reviewers: What Critics Say about Artists investigates “the role of reviews in shaping artists’ reception, and considering which artists are getting what kinds of reviews.” On Thursday, November 4th, the film Blurred Lines: Inside the Art World will be screened at 8 p.m.
