5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent synopis, 31 Dec 2002
By Jasminetea (London, UK) - See all my reviews
A pocket-sized delight of a book and a great companion to any bookshelf, The 20th Century Art Book: Mini Edition is something you'll want to flick through regularly. Each page features an analysis of the greatest artists of this century, along with an image of a related artwork. Apart from the familiar faces, this book will educate and inspire you with stories of little-known artists you'll want to find out more about.

4.0 out of 5 stars it's got everything, 8 Jun 2001
By A Customer
this is a good book, especially for art students or any big art fan. It has artists that even i have never heard before and the pictures are so clear that it shows the original colours

this book is not full of great detail about the works or the artists, but is a great reference tool to discover the names of similar artists and further areas to investigate. images are brilliant and captions are consise.
