Barbara Rose who has died, aged 84 courtesy HBO
Barbara Rose, an art historian and champion of avant-garde 20th century art, died on Friday (25 December) in Concord, New Hampshire, aged 84.
The cause of death was breast cancer, which Rose had been diagnosed with a decade before her death. After her landmark 1965
Art in America essay “ABC Art,” which helped define Minimalism, brought her to prominence, Rose would spend the following five decades as a writer and editor, holding editorial roles at such publications as Art in America, Vogue, Artforum, and the
Partisan Review.
In the late 1960s, Rose authored the book

And the election of President Joe Biden suggested a potential return to order but really, how can things ever be as they were?
