What is depiction? A new answer is given to this venerable question by providing a syncretistic theory of depiction that tries to combine the merits of the previous theories on the matter while dropping their defects. Thus; not only perceptual; but also both conventional and causal factors contribute in making something a picture of something else.

Five StarsBy pat solikLove the Book; writing is fabulous.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. a chronicle of a crucial period in American danceBy MARINA HARSSCroces writing is a model of criticism--lucid; muscular; sometimes provocative; and deeply engaged. Did she get things wrong at times? Yes. Was she opinionated? Extremely. But what a writer. Utter clarity; no bull; no jargon.7 of 42 people found the following review helpful. Arlene Croce and Bill T. JonesBy ErstwhileSince Arlene Croce critized Bill T. Joness Still/Here without seeing it; Ill critize her book without reading it. I did read her original attack in the New Yorker.Croces attack on Jones was rightly received by the dance world with repugnance and disbelief. Im not surprised to read that she has no background in dance; she is also a shoddy human being.Buying this book puts money in the pocket of a monstrous person and her publisher. Avoid it -- and her -- like the plague.
