Description
250 works from the USA Today make a firm case for the claim that the US has regained the right to be considered at the heart of all that is exciting, innovative, subversive and questioning in art today.
Many of the works by the 40 artists featured here make political comment and focus on the artist’s view of world events and America’s place in our global sociatey. Others look at more presonal preoccupations from a twenty-first-century aesthetic.
Inluding biographies and critical analyses, as well as incisive essays by Norman Rosenthal and Meghan Daily, this book is essential for all who want to know where American art is going, and why.
The book features photoportraits contributed by the artists.
