About this title

Synopsis

Since the 1960s, a number of artists have challenged the image of the lonely artist by embarking on long term collaborations that dramatically altered the terms of artistic identity. In this book, Green offers a sustained critical examination of collaboration in international contemporary art.

Review

"This is a clearly argued, original, and highly illuminating book that provides a genuinely new way of looking at contemporary art 'on the cusp, ' as the author puts it, between modernism and postmodernism. The decision to focus on the notion of collaboration has been used to open up a series of fascinating case studies associated with specific collaborative enterprises." --Stephen Bann, University of Bristol
