Hardback. Condizione: Good. Visionaries and Outcasts documents and analyzes, from hopeful creation to bitter end, the most ambitious experiment in artistic funding in American history.

This examination of one of the most controversial government programs of our time is essential to the discussion of the place of the artist in America.…
