About this product
Product Information
Since its initial publication in 2005, Theory in Contemporary Art has established itself as an indispensable resource for scholars of art theory. Featuring an updated theoretical framework and the addition of numerous writings reflecting the latest developments in the field, the Second Edition captures the vibrancy of the contemporary art scene and the role of critical theory within it. The volume combines core texts from the first edition with state-of-the-art theoretical writings, and juxtaposes non-Western viewpoints with those from mainstream art centers. This edition also assembles a dazzling array of academics, artists, curators, and critics to explore a range of new topics on the art theory agenda, including: the proliferation of international biennials; genealogy of the term contemporary art ; the relationship between aesthetics and politics; feminism and pornography; ecology and art; the Middle East and conflict studies; global capitalism and Eastern European art; gender and war; and technology.

?Here are urgent things to read'including texts by artists who 'live within' theory. Not only analytical arguments but models for the expansion of history, politics and aesthetics. ? - Josiah McElheny, artist, New York City ?Kocur's and Leung's thought-provoking new anthology makes me envy today's students and their professors. User-friendly, devoid of jargon, this volume zeroes in on issues that are at the core of contemporary art practices, offering a view of the current state of theory, and of the interrelation between art and theory, that is both synthetic and chronological. I cannot imagine a better guide to navigate through all the transformations art has gone through since 1980 in response to those of the world at large. This anthology is a delight, and an immense service to the field of contemporary studies.' - Yve-Alain Bois, Institute for Advanced Study

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
