	AICA : Exposition à la mémoire de Dorothy Walker
		The exhibition is, fittingly, curated by a fellow writer and art critic Ciarán Bennett, who has made Dorothy Walker’s time as an outstanding art critic, from 1968 to 1982, the focal point of the show.
		The more I considered the various themes of her life, a perception of Dorothy as a critic became paramount, rather than the persona of the cultural ambassador for which she was latterly often better known.
		At the center of the circle are exquisite abstract paintings by Patrick Scott, Sean Scully, Charles Tyrrell, and Sarah Walker, along with Corban Walker’s minimalist sculpture.

		Dorothy Walker, who died on December 8 last, was one of the most prominent and tireless evangelists for the visual arts in Ireland for much of the past half a century.
		As critic, author, curator, agitator, committee-server, and general facilitator of rewarding exchanges between a broad church of kindred spirits, both at home and abroad, Dorothy Walker was as generous in her hospitality as she was spirited in her opinions.
		When, in 1972, the National College of Art and Design was advertising to fill the post of Director it was entirely characteristic of Walker to write to Joseph Beuys, one of her touchstones of artistic excellence and engagement, begging him to apply for the post.

	A Vision of Modern Art - Dorothy Walker - Dublin
		In memory of the late Dorothy Walker, IMMA is hosting an exhibition of works by the artists she favored most, until June 27th.
		Curated by fellow writer and critic Ciarán Bennett, this exhibition focuses on Dorothy Walker the critic, rather than the ambassador for Irish Art that she became in her latter years.
		It during those years, from 1968 to 1982 that Dorothy Walker forged her name as a leading voice in Irish Modernism, and it is with that voice that she went on to advocate Modern Irish Art both here and abroad.

	The Art Scene Today
		The international standard, as laid down by modernist critic Clement Greenberg in the wake of abstract expressionism, urged artists to ‘evacuate content’, to remove narrative from their work and focus on the abstract ideal.
		Elsewhere in London, the critic Dorothy Walker staged a counter-exhibition Without the Walls, including Alanna O’Kelly, Nigel Rolfe, Coleman and others whose work drew on a wide range of media.
		Scully’s uncompromising urban grids managed to be abstract yet passionate, and his critical and commercial success reflected his ability to meld intellect with powerful feeling.

	GOTHIKA --Film Review by Kevin J. Walker, Film Critic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		I am aware of some of the critics (whose opinions, as usual, I read only after I've seen a film because some of then reveal way too much and may affect my own writing), and their mixed-to-low opinion of the film.
		Critics just don't get it, and this was driven home when I saw grown girly-men crying out like little scared bee-yatches during the film, which has plenty of frightful moments, and is pretty good as a scary movie.

	Mike Johnston on "Taste"
		The critic is the person who comes along after the battle and bayonets the wounded.
		Critics are best thought of as 'educated' laymen - they look at the work from outside, without the artists' prejudices, and determine whether artworks 'work' or not as seen from the layman's perspective and/or from a historical perspective.
		What distinguishes a 'good critic' is that (s)he has done the homework, brings a wide field of knowledge and experience to the creation being reviewed, and can make an INFORMED judgement as to where that creation falls in the overall structure of human creation as of that moment.

		Mellow zeroes in on the pictures and describes their achievement with both poignant accuracy and critical flair.
		These shortcomings aside, Augie Capaccio, Mellow's partner, and Don Fehr, his editor, are to be congratulated for producing this unfinished book and providing a chronology of the last 18 years of Evans's life; Mellow died before completing the final chapters.

		While the seductive, corpulent, figures depicted by Courbet, Cézanne and a plethora of others may have provided the vehicle for formal and technical innovation, the typical depiction of subject (most often the female nude) as ‘object’ (usually of the male gaze) fell out of fashion with modernism.
		The exhibition, entitled simply Dorothy Cross, comprises more than 40 works, including sculpture, installation, performance, photography and film, and covers the period from the late 1980s to date.
		Organised by the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, which has an extensive collection of Johns’ work, the exhibition is presented in association with THE IRISH TIMES.
