Who's Afraid of Contemporary Art ? |
Description
From museums and the art market to biennials, this book offers concise and pointed insights into today's art scene, decoding "artspeak", explaining what curators do, demystifying conceptual art, exploring emerging art markets, and more. In this easy-to-navigate A to Z guide, the authors' playful explanations draw on key artworks, artists, and events from around the globe, including how the lights going on and off by Martin Creed won the Turner Prize, what makes the likes of Marina Abramovic´ and Ai Weiwei such great artists, and why Kanye West would trade his Grammys to be one.
