This book presents the art of over 115 contemporary artists who do not always make their own work, but either employ others to produce it on their behalf or appropriate objects made by someone else. It explores concepts such as authorship, artistic originality, skill, craftsmanship and the creative act. Interviews with artists and artisans are included, offering a first-hand look at their collaborative process.
