John Haber

John Haber (b. 1954, New York City) is a prolific American art critic who lives in New York. He uses the perspective of critical theory in an accessible, journalistic prose to write online reviews and essays about topics ranging from traditional Art History, Modernism and Postmodernism.

When his New York Art Crit site started in 1994 with art reviews from around New York, it was the most thorough and extensive set of gallery and museum reviews anywhere online. This art hyperbook currently features about 700 artists, critics, and art historians from the early Renaissance to Postmodernism and beyond, with more than 5,000 links between reviews. Of special interest is the connection of art to feminism, philosophy, and politics.

Haber studied physics as an undergraduate student at Princeton University. His essays on New Media bridge the interplay between science and art.

Many of Haber’s articles have also appeared in Artillery Magazine, Perfect 8, Artists Books Reviews, American Abstract Artists, and Sharkforum.
