Editorial Review
Who are today’s artists? Why do they do what they do? How do they describe their work? These are some of the questions addressed in this companion volume to the fourth season of the Emmy-nominated PBS series.

Using the artists’ own words, together with images culled from the documentary’s footage and generous selections of their works, the book provides an extraordinary behind-the-scenes look into the creative process. The artists are shown at home, in the studio, and in the community, in a rich mosaic that debunks the Romantic notion of the artist as an isolated genius. Among those profiled are widely recognized artists such as Jenny Holzer, Robert Ryman, and Nancy Spero, and lesser-known artists such as Allora & Calzadilla, An-My Lê, and Catherine Sullivan. Throughout the volume, the artists’ varied and engaging voices speak to us directly—musing, analyzing, and laughing about their lives, works, and inspirations.

This book was required for my Contemporary Art class. Great pictures....the accompaning DVD goes into more depth about each artist and provides more info about each artist than does the book.

Art at its finest

This is an excellent book and an excellent series for anyone who wants to know more about art being creating today. My Art History professor uses this book at the text book for her Contemporary Art class. I recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in seeing art history in the making.

the best series on contemporary art ever!

I am a faithful follower of this series, and use the dvds in my contemporary art history class. The companion books make wonderful text to supplement the television series.

I love this series

I have the first two books in the series and hope to spend the rest of my life watching the PBS program and looking and thinking about the artwork presented both on video and in the beautifully crafted texts.
