George Baker (art historian)
George Baker is an American art historian of modern and contemporary art. He is especially known for his writings on photography. He is a professor of art history at the University of California, Los Angeles〔http://www.arthistory.ucla.edu/people/faculty/gbaker/〕 and an editor of the journal ''October.''〔http://mitpress.mit.edu/catalog/author/default.asp?aid=6040〕 Reviewing a book that Baker wrote on Dada, Merlin James wrote "What Baker really offers, perfectly reasonably, is high-end, post-modern theorising, with just a touch of unconventionality in honour of his subject’s way-outness."〔http://artcritical.com/2008/03/01/the-artwork-caught-by-the-tail-francis-picabia-and-dada-in-paris-by-george-baker-and-i-am-a-beautiful-monster-poetry-prose-and-provocation-by-francis-picabia/〕
