En savoir plus sur le livre

The last quarter century has been a remarkable and tumultuous time in the art world, marked by creative intensity as artists like Julian Schnabel, Jeff Koons, Keith Haring, and Jean-Michel Basquiat transitioned from high art to popular culture. This era also witnessed the rapid rise and fall of movements such as Graffiti. The booming art market of the 1980s transformed the roles of dealers and collectors, granting them unprecedented influence akin to Hollywood power agents, followed by a significant downturn. Writer Anthony Haden-Guest, who has been immersed in the art scene throughout this period, offers an authoritative and engaging account of contemporary art. Drawing on two decades of reporting, he provides vivid portraits of key players and dramatizes pivotal moments in an ever-evolving landscape. Haden-Guest skillfully captures the intricate dynamics of the art world, highlighting its ambition, intrigues, and power struggles—essential to understanding how artists navigate their careers. Filled with insightful anecdotes and compelling narratives, this work presents a cohesive view of the art world's workings, its current state, and potential future directions.
