Selection from the ANeuberger Berman Art Collection
Crosscurrents at Century's End: Selections from the Neuberger Berman
Art Collection
offered by Amazon


This selection of art since 1990 is drawn from a collection of approximately 600 works that reflect various directions emerging in today’s art, from fascinating reprises of tradition to phenomena that appear startlingly new. The focus is on particular works of art rather than representations of a movement or direction. However, certain trends can be identified: a theme of whimsy, the prominence of photographically-based work, the equal importance of figuration and abstraction.

Fifty-four artists are represented, among them Fatimah Tuggar (Nigeria), Neo Rauch (Germany), Mike Kelley (U.S.), Marlene Dumas (South Africa), and Vik Muniz (Brazil).

Art Today
Art Today

Offered by Amazon.com


A survey of one of the most controversial epochs art history, the Modern Movement, this text combines a critical eye with a historian's insight into wider trends. It reflects the changes that have swept across the art world since 1960, challenging the old assumptions and certainties. As it reviews the worldwide view, the book's central argument is that the art world is no longer hierarchical but plural, and that its structures - if they exist at all - are provisional. The author charts the progress of contemporary development and points out their sources and interrelationships. (From the Publisher)
