Description

Conceived by four of the most influential art historians of our time, this book has now been updated and expanded to include the most recent developments in contemporary art. The original authors have been joined by David Joselit to provide the most comprehensive history of art in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries ever published. More than 120 articles are presented in a year-by-year chronology, with each focusing on a crucial event--from the creation of a seminal work to the opening of a major exhibition--to tell the myriad stories of art from 1900 to the present.
