Book Description

"The accelerated history of an art world preoccupied with whatever is 'newer than the new', or as Germano Celant writes, 'more present than the present', demands a consolidation of contemporary art and related theory existing today. New Art seeks to come to terms with the changing and continually developing trends in the art world at the beginning of the 1990s. Brought together are artists, critics and curators from Europe and the USA who have played seminal roles in inventing and discerning the most significant definitions circulating the international art scene over the last decade or so."--BOOK JACKET.
