Groovy?

"Inside the White Cube" was so full of analogies that it made me feel like I was stoned. O'Doherty painstakingly deconstructed modern art to make it sound like a Dr. Suess book. Modernism is a house? I thought it was an art movement. Perhaps someone should illustrate these things. It would probably make for a colorful survey of 20th century art, though I'm sure no child--nor any adult without an MA--could wrap their mind around it.
All cynicism aside, his look into "the white cube" is better told this way that the way that bishop would have described it, it is dense yet warm and easy to read when you don't think to hard about.
