A Companion to Contemporary Art is a major survey covering the major
works and movements, the most important theoretical developments, and
the historical, social, political, and aesthetic issues in
contemporary art since 1945, primarily in the Euro-American context.
Collects 27 original essays by expert scholars describing the current
state of scholarship in art history and visual studies, and pointing
to future directions in the field. Contains dual chronological and
thematic coverage of the major themes in the art of our time:
politics, culture wars, public space, diaspora, the artist, identity
politics, the body, and visual culture. Offers synthetic analysis, as
well as new approaches to, debates central to the visual arts since
1945 such as those addressing formalism, the avant-garde, the role of
the artist, technology and art, and the society of the spectacle.
