Sinopse
How to cut through the labyrinthine contemporary art world - from the complex and animated
process starting in the mind of an artist to the end in a museum, collectors property,
storage space or dump, via workshops, galleries and art fairs? The best way is to follow
the only witness to all these developments: the work of art itself. This book follows
the life of works by eight major contemporary artists, from Martin Creeds conceptual
works and Gregory
Crewdsons photographs (requiring crews and production values similar to that of big
budget movies) to Marina Abramoviæs performances and Barry McGees motorway sound barrier
graffiti (touching upon the ambivalent relationship between street art and the
art market).
