A critical assessment of a landmark show in postwar European painting

The Royal Academy's seminal 1981 exhibition A New Spirit in Painting united key trajectories in 1950s-70s painting. Assessing its impact, this book features an essay and interviews with artists, curators and gallerists linked to the show, such as Georg Baselitz, Rainer Fetting, Jean-Louis Froment, Tim Marlow, Norman Rosenthal, Nicholas Serota, Anthony d'Offay, and Thaddaeus Ropac.
