I am conscious of ‘performing a role’ as an art critic and cannot stand ‘outside’ my writing. I am indebted to a notion drawn from musicology, that of having creative arts training and writing about the arts with a participatory knowledge. These writings on art, performance, and photography span twenty years.
Martin Patrick is an art critic, historian, and writer, and a contributor to a wide range of international publications. He writes on interdisciplinary practices, performance, and experimental uses of media in contemporary art.
