Fra bogens bagside:
"Contemporary art has the power not only to intrigue but also to confuse. What does it mean? Is it really art? Why does it sell for so much? But while there are numerous books on the subject, they often leave the reader feeling none the wiser, excluded or overwhelmed by impenetrable language or partisan views.
Global in scope and lively in style, Tony Godfrey's book is an essential, illustrated guide to the history of contemporary art from 1980 to the present. Framing the story as a series of crises, conflicts and arguments about what art is or should be, it also brings in some of the most pressing issues of our time, providing a truly relatable and accessible introduction to a fascinating subject."
Beskrivelse af bogen fra Saxo:
"A lively introduction to contemporary art that stretches from Andy Warhol's Brillo boxes to Marina Abramovic's performance art to today's biennale circuit and million-dollar auctions. Encountering a work of contemporary art, a viewer might ask, "What does it mean?" "Is it really art?" and "Why does it cost so much?" These are not the questions that E. H. Gombrich set out to answer in his magisterial The Story of Art. Contemporary art seems totally unlike what came before it, departing from the road map supplied by Raphael, D rer, Rembrandt, and other European masters. In The Story of Contemporary Art, Tony Godfrey picks up where Gombrich left off, offering a lively introduction to contemporary art that stretches from Andy Warhol's Brillo boxes to Marina Abramovic's performance art to today's biennale circuit and million-dollar auctions. Godfrey, a curator and writer on contemporary art, chronicles important developments in pop art, minimalism, conceptualism, installation art, performance art, and beyond.
Godfrey's narrative, lavishly illustrated, traces a series of debates over what art is or should be: object versus sculpture, painting versus conceptual, local versus global, gallery versus wider world. He presents multiple voices--not only critics, theorists, curators, and collectors but also artists and audiences. Key to Godfrey's account is the upending of the once widespread perception that art is made almost exclusively by white men from North America and Europe. The Story of Contemporary Art is an essential guide to this radical transformation."
