critique culturelle, lorsqu'elle nest pas décriée, ne fait pas toujours l'unanimité. Il n'est pas rare d'entendre que le critique est un artiste raté. S'interrogeant d'abord sur leur mauvaise réputation, Catherine Voyer-Léger explore la façon dont ce métier est pratiqué et se demande ce que serait un espace critique idéal. Mais qui sont les critiques culturels ? Pourquoi leur travail est-il important ? Pourquoi demande-t-on si souvent à des vedettes de jouer aux critiques dans nos médias ? Est-ce que les nouvelles technologies changent la donne ? Qui est responsable de s'assurer que l'espace critique soit un lieu sain où la discussion sur l'art peut avoir lieu ? Ce sont autant de questions qui ouvrent des pistes de réflexion dans cet ouvrage d'une grande pertinence où l'auteure invite tous les gens concernés, y compris le public, à interroger notre rapport à la critique pour ouvrir une discussion de société qui dépasserait les procès d'intention, les blessures d'orgueil ou les querelles de clocher.
