Description: "As Painting, which accompanies an exhibition of the same name at the Wexner Center for the Arts, offers thought-provoking new perspective on painting in the United States and Europe since the mid-1960s. It illuminates the flexible boundaries of what can be seen or interpreted "as painting" in relation to sculpture, photography, and architecture, highlighting points of convergence and divergence.".

"The book features two extended essays, detailed commentaries on each of the twenty-six artists in the exhibition, and fourteen additional essays and other pieces by artists and commentators noted for their engagement with the issues raised here."--BOOK JACKET.
