Based on John Dewey's lectures on esthetics, delivered as the first William James Lecturer at Harvard in 1932, Art as Experience has grown to be considered internationally as the most distinguished work ever written by an American on the formal structure and characteristic effects of all the arts: architecture, sculpture, painting, music, and literature.

Even a decade after his death, Clement Greenberg remains controversial. One of the most influential art writers of the twentieth century, Greenberg propelled Abstract Expressionist painting-in particular the monumental work of Jackson Pollock-to a leading position in an international postwar art world. On radio and in print, Greenberg was the voice of "the new American painting," and a central figure in the postwar cultural history of the United States. Caroline Jones's magisterial study widens Greenberg's fundamental tenet of "opticality"-the idea that modernist art is apprehended through "eyesight alone"-to a broader arena, examining how the critic's emphasis on the specular resonated with a society increasingly invested in positivist approaches to the world. Greenberg's modernist discourse, Jones argues, developed in relation to the rationalized procedures that gained wide currency in the United States at midcentury, in fields ranging from the sense-data protocols theorized by scientific philosophy to the development of cultural forms, such as hi-fi, that targeted specific senses, one by one. Greenberg's attempt to isolate and celebrate the visual was one manifestation of a large-scale segmentation-or bureaucratization-of the body's senses. Working through these historical developments, Jones brings Greenberg's theories into contemporary philosophical debates about agency and subjectivity. 'Eyesight Alone' offers artists, art historians, philosophers, and all those interested in the arts a critical history of this generative figure, bringing his work fully into dialogue with the ideas that shape contemporary critical discourse and shedding light not only on Clement Greenberg but also on the contested history of modernism itself.

Controverses, polémiques, voire débats virulents opposent les défenseurs et les détracteurs de la création artistique d'aujourd'hui.
S'interroger sur les normes d'évaluation et d'appréciation esthétiques qui permettent de porter un jugement sur les œuvres d'art est une question pertinente ; elle rejoint les réactions du grand public, souvent perplexe et désorienté devant des œuvres qu'il ne comprend pas.
Que les critères artistiques des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles ne soient plus valides n'a rien d'étonnant : la modernité artistique du XXe siècle s'est chargée de disqualifier les catégories esthétiques traditionnelles. La question posée par l'art depuis une trentaine d'années est celle de l'inadéquation des concepts - art, œuvre, artiste, etc. - à des réalités qui, apparemment, ne leur correspondent plus. Or, paradoxalement, c'est sur le thème de la décadence de l'art contemporain que se centre la polémique, en France comme en Europe, depuis des années.
Est-il possible de redéfinir les conditions d'exercice du jugement esthétique vis-à-vis des œuvres contemporaines ? À supposer même que celles-ci soient «n'importe quoi», peut-on tenir sur elles un disocurs argumenté et critique ?
