This book was designed to tempt the palate of anyone who is curious about the trends that are challenging and expanding the boundaries of contemporary art. The artists surveyed combine a diverse range of disciplines, media and genres. The main thesis is that "contemporary art" is almost indefinable, and that contemporary artists are constantly reinventing themselves and synthesizing previously isolated fields and ideas. As such, the artists in this book are organised alphabetically rather than by unifying themes or categories. So open your mind, hop around and enjoy.' (Front book flap)
