Reviews for Art Since 1960 (World of Art)
'Archer’s admirable overview treats the history of art of this period in a manner which does justice to its diversity and its complexity of inter-relations, between different aspects of artistic practice and the actualities of the world in which they operate... a?brave and intelligent attempt to live up to its implications' - Art Monthly
