Art critic
United Kingdom · 1957–2011
Chief art critic of the Independent and a collage artist. Diagnosed in 2008 with a glioblastoma sited next to the speech area of his brain, he kept a journal of losing language while continuing to file reviews, published in the Observer three months before his death and posthumously as Until Further Notice, I Am Alive.

I think that loss of speech, and of understanding of speech, and of understanding of writing, and of coherent writing – these losses will amount to the loss of my mind. I know what this feels like and it has no insides, no internal echo. Mind means talking to oneself. There wouldn't be any secret mind surviving in me.
