Format:Hardcover
This massive volume has for ambition to cover in a single survey the entire artistic creativity that has developed in the Western world since 1900. This is a task the book fulfills rather convincingly considering the complexity and diversity of the material under scrutiny.
The organization of the content is overall chronological, although there are also crossways to browse the books in a different mode than just with following the chronological development.
The book offers a valuable balance between facts and analytical moments which enable the reader to make sense of the factual data.
This should be a book of interest to both amateurs and connoisseurs alike. Both a great study and coffee table book with abundant illustrations throughout.

Format:Hardcover
An encyclopedia of 20th century art, well presented with good reproductions. Arranged chronologically with chapters covering 10 year spans which are sub- divided to include
major events or movements within the decade. Gently touches on inter-disciplinary comparisons. Ideal for the keen enthusiast in need of background.

Format:Hardcover
This book is a great reference book on modern and contemporary art. Written by key art critics and historians (some of them probably the most influential of 60s on), it provides the basics for a research in art (extensive bibliography) and an enjoyable reading.
