I wrote a bit about this myself. Give it a go if you've got 3 mins to spare.

To he fair, that's not uncommon in art theory stuff. A massive chunk of it is writing about life/society/politics/stuff and the things around at the time - which then influenced the thinking or movement which then inspired the art.

I suppose it's more about the things that (some of) the artists are interested in, more than any actual description of the art itself.

Anyway, it's great to see, so thank you again :)
