Modern Art: A Critical Introduction

Radically restructured from the first edition to put the focus on the key themes and fully updated to include many more examples of recent art practice, this new edition of the classic textbook foregoes the chronological approach to art movements in favour of looking at the ways in which art has been understood. Containing an expanded glossary, comprehensive marginal notes and extensively illustrated with a wide range of visual examples,Modern Art: A Critical Introductionis the essential textbook for students of art history.

Julie Sheldon is Programme Leader for BA (Hons) Art History in the Department of Contextual Studies at Liverpool School of Art and Design, Liverpool John Moores University.
