Books by Richard Kostelanetz

Introduces the concept of avant-garde art to readers as it has been practiced over the last century. Covering figures and genres in all styles of art, this is an ideal introduction to often misunderstood art forms.

The author of many books about arts and artists in America, Richard Kostelanetz in his Artists' SoHo describes, as an historian-participant, the development of a legendary artists' colony within an industrial slum in lower Manhattan.

This anthology collects 51 of Stein's most experimental poems, stories, portraits, and plays.

Conversing With Cage is the ideal introduction to this world, offering in the artist's own words his ideas about life and art.
