This richly illustrated book brings together a series of specially commissioned interviews with leading, international artists, art historians, theorists and curators: Bill Viola; Griselda Pollock; Richard Wentworth; Barbara Kruger; Sadie Plant; Okwui Enwezor; Martin Kemp; WJT Mitchell; Hani Rashid; Art in Question will be valuable to anyone with an interest in contemporary art, as well as to students and teachers of art and design, art history and theory, cultural studies and museum studies.
