Every term, whether theme, movement, medium or practice, is defined with clarity and precision, and the entries are complemented by over a hundred illustrations.International in scope, and covering the entire breadth of modern art from Impressionism to today, this will be the perfect companion for anyone with an interest in modern art and an essential resource for every student of art history.
