"Barr forever changed American taste as he changed the look and atmosphere and content of art museums around the world. His books, exhibition catalogs, and articles gave modern art a language, a literature, and a history. The collection he amassed for the Museum of Modern Art remains the definitive statement of the visual arts in the twentieth century. Righteously, zealously, stubbornly, Alfred Barr hewed the pillars that continue to frame for us the art of our time" (cubierta posterior)
