   Review: Contemporary British Art

   Thanks to Art History for reviewing Routledge title: Contemporary British Art By Grant Pooke http://bit.ly/PNzxBB

   'Grant Pooke’s Contemporary British Art is one of the first (if not the first) survey books to be written on the art produced in Britain between 1987 and 2007, and a thorough account of recent artists, art practices and thematic tendencies is provided. Works of art are carefully described and discussed in a clear, jargon-free style, making this book accessible to a wide audience; it will undoubtedly become a mainstay of school and undergraduate reading lists.' - Art History

   Rave Reviews for ‘Reframing Photography’

   Thanks to philly artblog blog and we make money not art for their reviews of Reframing Photography By Rebekah Modrak & Bill Anthes:

   'Reframing Photography, the 560-page encyclopedic book on the subject includes everything about photography and then some. The book is for students, teachers and those in the self-taught orbit who want to do it themselves with a little help.' - philly artblog blog

   ‘...the content is literally mind-blowing. Bringing together rigorous theory, idiot proof “how to” tutorials, artistic works that illustrate each concept and method might sound a bit too much for a sole book written by only two authors but somehow, it works. Theory, techniques and illustrative works complement each other efficiently.’ - we make money not art

   Contemporary Art and the Cosmopolitan Imagination

   Art can change the way we imagine, understand and engage with the world and with others very different than ourselves. In this sense, art participates in a critical dialog between cosmopolitan imagination, embodied ethics and locational identity. Contemporary Art and the Cosmopolitan Imagination offers a challenging new direction in the current literature on cosmopolitanism, globalization and art.
