Mira Schor discusses several topics: wet painting versus dry dogma, the state of art criticism, the relation of feminism to art and its reception, and modest art. She also discusses her use of language in her paintings and her dual work as essayist and visual artist.

Mira Schor is a painter living in New York. She is the editor of The Extreme of the Middle: Writings of Jack Tworkov, published by Yale University Press in 2009. In early 2010 a second collection of her writings, A Decade of Negative Thinking: Essays on Art, Politics, and Daily Life, will be published by Duke University Press (28 minutes).
