The Case of the Baffled Radical
Harold Rosenberg
These pieces-which Rosenberg himself gathered for publication shortly before
his death in 1978-range from profiles of historically important individuals to book
reviews and interviews with artists by Rosenberg and with Rosenberg by other
critics and art historians. Throughout, the essays and interviews show the critic's
". interest in exposing the political and ideological forces that shaped the
contemporary art scene.
