Art Today
Edward Lucie-Smith
Phaidon
First paperback edition, 1999
An ambitious survey of what is described as "perhaps the most thoroughly confusing epoch in the whole history of the visual arts - the period from 1960 to the present" The Modern Movement loses its dominance without being replaced by any single new orthodoxy. Artists, critics, and the public alike are now confronted by unprecedented variety and complexity. Into this confusing array comes Edward Lucie-Smith's work, combining a critical eye and the historian's insight into wider trends. This work has been described as an ideal introduction for anyone wishing to confront contemporary art.
Trade paperback,
with dust jacket. 511 pages, Folio (11 1/2" X 9 7/8").
Almost as new throughout. Dust jacket has a hint of wear at spine head and slight shelf scuffing, else fine.
