Over the course of his distinguished career, Robert Hughes wrote with brutal honesty about art, architecture, culture, religion--and himself. The Spectacle of Skill brings together some of his most unforgettable pieces, culled from nine of his most widely read and important books, alongside never-before-published pages from his unfinished second volume of memoirs. Showcasing Hughes's enormous range, this indispensable anthology offers a uniquely cohesive view of both the critic and the man.
