Note: "First published as a series of three articles in Artforum in 1976"-- Introducción. Summary: "O'Doherty was the first to explicitly confront a particular crisis in postwar art as he sought to examine the assumptions on which the modern commercial and museum gallery were based. Concerned with the complex and sophisticated relationship between economics, social context, and aesthetics as represented in the contested space of the art gallery, he raises the question of how artist must construe their work in relation to the gallery space and system" (Solapa anterior)
