Georges Bataille, American art criticism

American art criticism as professed by Rosalind Krauss, Yve-Alain Bois and Hal Foster has been much influenced by Bataille. In fact, the whole of so-called French theory has had an enormous influence on postmodern American theory, much like German theory was influential in post-war France. See American reception of French theory.
