	North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts
		A professional art critic may be a newspaper reporter assigned to the art beat, a scholar writing for professional journals or texts, or an artist writing about other artists.
		Critics write to be read, and they must capture their readers' attention and engage their readers' imaginations.
		Interpretation of works of art may extend to dramatic presentations through reader's theater (students write dialogue for the people in an artwork, then perform the parts with different voices), "living paintings" or tableaux, and sound symphonies (students act out the sounds that are suggested by the artwork).

	spiked-culture \| Article \| What has happened to art criticism?
		That art critics perceived a crisis in art reflected the emerging rupture between conservative and radicalised art and criticism.
		That the theorisation and criticism of art was possible, desirable and necessary was an assumption held by all participants of the ICA conference, regardless of their aesthetic or political affiliations.
		Art is becoming indistinguishable from lifestyle culture, and the logic of fashion also dominates how art is made visible; with the centred authority of modernist aesthetic criteria long-dead, and post-modernism's politicised proliferation of criteria equally exhausted, fashion steps in to regulate things with its free market, vaguely democratic aesthetics.

	Critic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Critics are numerous in certain fields, including art critics, music critics, film critics, theatre or drama, restaurant and scientific publication critics.
		Criticism in general terms means democratic judgement over the suitability of a subject for the intended purposes, as opposed to the authoritarian command, which is meant as an absolute realization of the authority's will, thus not open for debate.
		Critics might even champion a wholly new art medium; for instance the century-long critical struggle to have photography recognised as a valid art form.

	Ethical Criticism of Art [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		His position appears to have been not that literary art can't deal with moral issues as part of its subject matter, but simply that they are irrelevant to the aesthetic value of the art, and should not influence the audience's, or critic’s, aesthetic response to the work.
		Nussbaum's main concern is with moral philosophy, and her interest in ethical criticism appears to stem from the desire to show the value and usefulness of a particular selection of literature to moral philosophy, and to the development of important moral skills.

		In his Essay on Criticism (1711) Alexander Pope added an important section on the criticism of critics: those who do their job best always “survey the Whole, not seek slight faults to find.” Because the general tone of criticism of this period was prescriptive, it is called judicial criticism.
		The emphasis in criticism of this period on the reaction of the critic to the work under scrutiny led to the use of the term impressionistic criticism.
		Architectural criticism by Ada Louise Huxtable and others and studies of the city by Lewis Mumford and Jane Jacobs broke new ground for critical scrutiny.

	Haber's Art Reviews: Art, Science, and Rembrandt's Eyes
		While one sometimes characterizes art as inherently unique, science has necessarily reproducible, Modernist and Postmodernists assaults on the originality of a work of art may have driven the poles even further together.
		Finally, art can look to science as itself a representation, one rich in accuracy, authority, and openness to experience, as with Ruisdael's layered representation of nature, humanity, a nation, and his own art.
		Art like this allows the parallels between art and science to intertwine, but it also does not reduce any one of these purposes to another.

	Digital Art Criticism: Weight: JoDI
		An exploration of the metaphysics [1] of digital information is relevant to digital art criticism.
		Various schools of digital art criticism have emerged, but they have not greatly explored the phenomenology and ontology of digital art.
		Criticism that attempts to situate digital art in terms of a non-digital tradition (the pre-eminent text is Manovich 2001) obscures attempts to understand digital information and its relation to human consciousness per se and also implicitly compounds the magical effect [4].

	March 1972 - Reflections on the State of Art Criticism by Leo Steinberg - Brief Article ArtForum - Find Articles
		As a student, he himself had adhered to the principles of Roger Fry; as an adult art historian, he returned to his childhood interest in human emotion and motivation and their metaphorical representation in Renaissance art.
		He also theorized a shift from an art referencing nature to one based on cultural images, as in Rauschenberg's work, and called this art "post-modernist," the first use of the term in relation to contemporary art.
		These concepts remain influential in the study of art history and the criticism of contemporary art, perhaps to the point where we no longer think about their origins; like the first draft of any commonplace, Steinberg's version was less dogmatic and more nuanced than its later incarnations in others' writing.

		In addition to promoting visual awareness and a better understanding of our material culture, talking about art provides students with an opportunity to clarify, verbalize, articulate, and better understand their own responses to objects and images in their environment, as well as learn to appreciate others' responses.
		There are a variety of approaches for talking about material culture and the visual environment, including art.
		Regarding art particularly, these approaches assume that objects and images are purposefully created (with intent): that there are reasons why the object or image looks and/or functions the way it does and that often there are messages or meanings that are intended to be communicated to the viewer.
