There is a wonderful review of a new book about painting at http://www.thesmartset.com/article/article08200702.aspx.
The primary idea of the book itself is that the most important thing about painting is not to think about what a painting IS or whether painting is still relevant. It is simply to LOOK at paintings. This somewhat radical idea is explained extremely well in the article and offers links to images of paintings from the middle ages to the 20th century. I found it a refreshing discussion of painting and wish the book itself was in my library...
