CONCEPTUAL ART

Conceptual Art
A clear, extensive, concise and informative account of this fascinating phenomenon.
A clear and engaging account of art where the idea behind the work is as important as, if not more than, its physical existence
The first truly international account of Conceptual art, considering works from as far afield as Japan and Argentina, as well as the more well-known locations of Europe and America
Covers the many forms of Conceptual art: photographs, videos, posters, billboards, charts, plans and even language itself
Traces its origins to the anti-art gestures of Dada, as well as considering how artists have continued to adapt Conceptual strategies up to the present day
