Introduction -- Painting.
Content advice: Painting has often been pronounced dead since the end of the 19th century, yet its resurgence in the 1980s initiated a dramatic expansion of its field. This is a guide to painting's multiple discourses from that moment, going beyond the modern/postmodern dialectic and redefining the conditions necessary for an artwork to be described as 'painting' in today's and tomorrow's world.
