Robert Hughes 1938-2012


Robert Hughes, who died yesterday, was the kind of critic we need and his passing is a real loss.
We need to question the true values of art and lift the veil of prescribed quality to expose the vacuity of capital. We need to see the soul in art and not a knowing product of the reflection of consumption and capital. But of course, there is another question, what else is there to reflect on?
