The Market - Documents Of Contemporary Art
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
The sway of transnational markets over contemporary culture has transformed art's environment, blurring the previously discrete realms of price and value, capital and creativity. Uncovering the origins of these phenomena in earlier epochs, this anthology surveys the relations between art, value and price; the evolution and influence of patronage; the institutions and networks of the art world; and the diversity of artistic practices that either criticize or embrace contemporary market conditions. Paperback in excellent clean condition throughout. 239 pages, including index. Size 21 x 15 x 2.5 cm.
