Information About

Art Critic




Typically the art critic views art at Exhibitions , Galleries , Museum s or Artist s' Studio s.

Professional art critics are expected to have in-depth knowledge of both Contemporary Art and the History Of Art , and thus be able to make informed assessments of art. Knowledge, however, provides no guarantee that a critic will know if a Work Of Art , an exhibition, or an artist will stand out in history as "great".

Many now famous and celebrated artists were not recognized by the art critics of their time, often because their art was in a style not yet understood or favored. Conversely, some critics have helped to explain and promote new Art MovementsRoger Fry with the Post-Impressionist movement for example.
