Description

Contemporary Art: A Clear Guide to the Present Day Natalie Rudd explores the many aspects of contemporary art, from its backstory to today. This guide delves into different approaches, media and recurring themes, as well as the role of the art market and its structures. Rudd examines how artists are untangling historical and contemporary narratives to expose inequalities, and discusses the ethics of making. She also looks at the potential for art to improve the world and effect political change. A 'toolkit' section offers advice on how to interpret contemporary art and where to access it. By providing a clear understanding of the contexts in which art is being made today, this guide brings the subject right up-to-date. With an accessible narrative and analysis of six relevant works, readers can gain a deeper understanding of contemporary art and its many complexities.
