Twenty-five years after the publication of A Dictionary of the
Avant-Gardes, the distinguished critic and arts historian Richard
Kostelanetz returns to his favorite subject for a third edition.
Rewriting earlier entries, adding hundreds of new ones, Kostelanetz
provides intelligence and information unavailable anywhere else, no
less in print than online, about a wealth of subjects and
individuals. Focused upon what is truly innovative and excellent,
he ranges widely with insight and surprise, including appreciations
of artistic athletes such as Muhammad Ali, Johan Cruyff, and the
Harlem Globetrotters and such collective creations as Las Vegas and
his native New York City. Continuing the traditions of cheeky
high-style Dictionarysts, honoring Samuel Johnson and Nicolas
Slonimsky (both with individual entries), Kostelanetz offers a
"reference book" to be enjoyed not only in bits and chunks, but
continuously as one of the dozen books someone would take if they
planned to be stranded on a desert isle.
