Description
The last few decades have seen a complete untethering of what art can be, who makes it and where it can be found, which has been matched by a reassessment of art''s appropriate place in society and the financial value that should be attached to it. Here, Kelly Grovier surveys the dynamic developments in art practice worldwide since 1989, going in search of those artists who have undertaken to shape a fresh visual vocabulary and whose work reflects on these turbulent years. The book''s ten chapters examine the key themes in contemporary art, from portraiture in the age of face transplants and facial recognition software, to political activism, science and religion.
