Description

Who's Afraid Of Contemporary Art? by Kyung An

What is contemporary art? What makes it ‘contemporary’? What and who is it for? And why is it so expensive? From museums and the art market to biennales and the next big thing, this book offers concise and pointed insights, decoding ‘artspeak’, explaining what curators do, demystifying conceptual art, exploring emerging art markets and more. The authors’ playful explanations draw on key artworks, artists and events from around the globe, including Felix Gonzalez-Torres’s ‘Candy Spills’, extreme Chinese performances, Damien Hirst and Kanye West.
