This book has a single intention: To teach you how to write about your art. Author, artist and media writer Vicki Amorose offers a step-by-step approach that will enable you to create a professional artist statement. From there, she shows you to use the same material to represent you and your work for funding, exhibition material, proposals and websites in order to connect with your viewers and promote and sell your art.
The first major survey of photography's place in recent art history. This influential body of work by over 160 artists over four decades is contextualised in the 'Documents' section by original artist's statements and interviews, as well as lucid reflections on photography by major thinkers of the era such as Roland Barthes and Jean Baudrillard.
