A conversation with author Rochelle Gurstein about her new book “Written in Water: The Ephemeral Life of the Classic in Art”. Gurstein set out to explore and establish a solid foundation for the classic in the history of taste. However, to her surprise, that history instead revealed repeated episodes of soaring and falling reputations, rediscoveries of long-forgotten artists, and radical shifts in the canon, all of which went so completely against common knowledge that it was hard to believe it was true. In the conversation, Rochelle discusses this surprisingly fluid history of what is loved and respected in the history of art.
