What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Goldstone has impressively mined the artist’s archives and interviewed many who knew him, dutifully recording all their contradictory gossip.” —Kirkus
“This isn’t a story about an artist. This is a story about something more deep and meaningful
This book is very well–researched, it’s very detailed.” —Forward Thinking
“Goldstone is a deft guide to her subject, managing to write up all of his conspiracy research without making him sound like a loon, while also providing a thorough examination of the art scene in Houston and New York.” —Bookslut
“The first major book about the artist
” —Newsweek
“Patricia Goldstone has written the first comprehensive biography of the conceptual artist
which is full of details from those who were closest to him: family, friends, colleagues, and past loves. Goldstone weaves US historical records into the course of the artist’s life, citing scandals, political intrigue, and economic turbulence along the way.” —Artnet
