4 out of 5 stars Great!   December 17, 2002
16 out of 16 found this review helpful

This book is a continuation of the book "Art at the turn of the
Millenium". It follows exactly the same format. Each artist has
four pages of photographs dedicated to his or her work. There is also a small paragraph about the artist and a mug shot of the artist's
head. Unfortunately, the problems with the origional book have
carried through to this one. The captions to the pictures are unhelpfull, especially with installation and film work and there is little quality writing about the artist in question. However,
the book is extremely concentrated and none (as far as I can see)
of the works featured in the origional book are featured here,
even though many of the artists are. The works on show are thus
those since 2000 or there about. It is however, extremely good value and contains much material which is unavailable outside
art magazines and gallery brochures over the last few years.
If you liked the origional book then this is more of the same, and it's just as good as the last one, if not better!
However, those wanting to begin learning about modern art would
be well advised to look elsewhere. For some artists, the entries
may well mean nothing to you if you don't know at least something about those artists or have seen their exhibitions.
Great! I hope another one comes out in three years time!

As with all Taschen art books, this has beautiful and huge colour prints throughout and is a facinating look at a little bit about vast varieties of different modern artists. Extremely interesting, even for those with no interest in art.
