• Resumen

  • In this article, the author looks back at the 1977 exhibition "Pictures," curated by the American art critic Douglas Crimp. The author argues that the show, which featured figurative works by the artists Troy Brauntuch, Jack Goldstein, Sherrie Levine, Robert Longo and Philip Smith, signaled the end of modernist abstraction. In addition, it is argued that the works were concerned with the idea of memory as the point of departure and destination of art.
