Contemporary Art

"Taylor charts the ideas and practices of new art across the international spectrum ... shows how contemporary art of the last three decades has been energized not merely by changing technologies of art-making, but by the spread of new museum architecture, by the voice of the critic, and ... by the activity of the powerful international curator ... Reviewing the major controversies of the later twentieth century and the early years of the twenty-first, it also includes a discussion of the impact of the internet and digital art. Generously illustrated in color and with a timeline ... with 206 illustrations, 160 in color"--Dustjacket.
