What Are You Looking At? by Will Gompertz - a wonderfully lively and accessible history of Modern Art by the BBC Arts Editor. "An essential primer not only for art lovers but for art loathers too". (Express). What is modern art? Why do we either love it or loathe it? And why is it worth so much damn money? Join Will Gompertz on a dazzling tour that will change the way you look at modern art forever. From Monet's water lilies to Van Gogh's sunflowers, from Warhol's soup cans to Hirst's pickled shark, hear the stories behind the masterpieces, meet the artists as they really were, and discover the real point of modern art. You will learn: not all conceptual art is bollocks; Picasso is king (but Cezanne is better); Pollock is no drip; Dali painted with his moustache; a urinal changed the course of art, why your 5-year-old really couldn't do it. Refreshing, irreverent and always straightforward, What Are You Looking At? cuts through the pretentious art speak and asks all the basic questions that you were too afraid to ask. Your next gallery trip is going to be a little less intimidating and a lot more interesting. "Robert Hughes' The Shock of the New redone a la Bill Bryson". (Telegraph). This book is essential reading for sceptics, art lovers, and the millions of us who visit art galleries every year - and are confused. It will also be enjoyed by readers of The Story of Art by E.H. Gombrich and is a perfect primer to the subject for the student or beginner. Will Gompertz is the BBC Arts Editor and probably the world's first art history stand-up comedian. He was a Director at the Tate Gallery for 7 years. He has a particular interest in modern art and has written about the arts for The Times and the Guardian for over 20 years. In 2009, he wrote and performed a sell-out one-man comedy show about modern art at the Edinburgh Festival. He was recently voted one of the world's top 50 creative thinkers by New York's Creativity Magazine.

是本好书，没读完... 主要是旁征博引的画作太多，看一段就得查一下这幅画长什么样子，到最后查的时间比看的时间还多...

超级棒的现代艺术史入门书！认认真真读完学到了好多东西觉得看现代艺术作品时的懵逼程度可以减轻不少了23333作者的语言也超可爱偶尔耍赖，虽然缺了不少东西但涉及到的作品和艺术家都写得很鲜明生动了

非母语的书籍读起来都生涩难懂，但是这又恰恰表达了作者最初的想法，就像这本现代艺术150年，八年前有幸读过中文译本，现在可以好好捧起原版看了

翻译的中文版跟💩一样 英文原版也一般 讲故事太多 而不是把叙述重点放在分析画作上 有注水之嫌

读完的第一本全英书。要是书中提到的每一个作品都有插图就好了。
