Product Description

Focusing on the place of art in contemporary culture, this work discusses museums, galleries and exhibitions in Western Europe and the USA. It encourages readers to reflect on their own experiences and to consider whether today's art could be considered to be dominated by "spectacle".

Arts course book5
I have recently been on a course at the Courtauld Institute and this book was recommended by them. It is an interesting look about what we are presented with when we step into a gallery and the background work that has gone into the exhibition. A thought provoking book, easy to read and you will look at exhibitions in a different light.
