art-SITES LONDON: The Indispensable Guide to Contemporary Art–Architecture–Design
London has emerged as an epicenter of contemporary art, indisputably situated at the helm of the European art world and a formidable rival to New York. Though viewed as a provincial outpost as recently as the early 1990s, it has become an international hub—home to innovative museums, new architectural landmarks, a vibrant gallery scene, a flourishing design realm, and an invigorating population of emerging and high-profile artists. The city’s dynamic and sweeping transformation is immediately apparent in the tall and eccentrically shaped buildings that now dot the skyline. It is further evinced in the plentitude of top-notch exhibitions and venues, edgy public art, and urban renewal ventures that are resuscitating once-forsaken and derelict neighborhoods. ---compelling, jargon-free commentaries by an esteemed art-historian &amp; curator ---where to see work by internationally acclaimed and emerging artists, architects, and designers ---190 illustrations, 12 detail maps and city tour routes, subject directory, index ---addresses, contact information, websites, access hours, admission fees, helpful hints
