Remember the 1970s? They are already the subject of an anthology of critical writings in Australian art compiled by Paul Taylor. Modestly described on the back cover of Anything Goes as “Australia’s most written-about art critic”, Taylor has assembled some 16 pieces of previously published criticism from magazines, newspapers and exhibition catalogues. In this anthology we meet most of the big names of the seventies’ art criticism in Australia: Terry Smith, Patrick McCaughey, Margaret Plant, Daniel Thomas, Janine Burke and others. Donald Brook’s often turgid writing on Post­Object Art has been omitted though I seem to remember that his criticism was considered important and influential at the time.
