Avant-Garde and After: Rethinking Art Now - Couverture souple

Offering a critical perspective—rather than a traditional survey, this provocative text explores the art of the last twenty years—the latter 1970s, the 1980s, and the first half of the 1990s—in both a thematic and chronological fashion. Using an engaging and approachable style—and an abundance of color illustrations, it takes a long look at dominant tendencies in contemporary art in the United States, Western and Eastern Europe, and Russia—and provides a series of challenging view points on the most advanced art forms, themes, and issues.
