Description
Art Crazy Nation: The Post Blimey Art World by Matthew Collings explores the British art world over the last five years. This book offers a candid look at the contemporary art scene, questioning whether it has become too commercial or lost its artistic integrity. Collings examines the role of curators and the influence of Marxist ideology in modern art. He also considers the impact of institutions like Tate Modern on the art world. Rather than providing definitive answers, Collings describes the current state of British art and how it is evolving. This book provides a unique insight into the post-Blimy art world, offering a thought-provoking perspective on the role of art in society today.
