Reviews
An incisive and thoughtful interpretation of two major figures in post-war art. Anyone interested in Warhol and Richter as artists will see how much of their work in the 1960s operated in response to contemporary social and political issues, and anyone interested in the politics of the Cold War will see how nuclear tensions pervaded everyday life and everyday art.
