Reviews

"A brilliant critical re-evaluaton of art critical methodologies."
*Leonardo*

"A much-needed discussion regarding a practice that is too often ignored. We need a dialogue about what community art is and could be . . . [and] need more discussions like Kester’s that question the traditional roles of artists and audiences."
*Public Art Review*

"Conversation Pieces nobly records and analyzes dialogical art with a respect that very few critics have offered thus far."
*Flaunt*
