Elizabeth Schambelan on criticism - Artforum International

Criticism is not some inscrutable, mysterious process. It’s just a matter of: (1) noticing ourselves responding to a work of art, moment by moment, and (2) getting better at articulating that response.
To work in performance was to stick two fingers up to the art establishment: it can’t be preserved on a canvas – only on film, but that’s not the same thing.
