When it comes to Modern art hardly anyone knows what they're talking about. With this book Matthew Collings says that's OK. Modern art's unknowableness is what makes it worth bothering with. Each one of the six chapters becomes a journey, a tour around the world to art galleries and museums and artists's studios, and a trip back and forth in time - from the heroic early beginnings of Modern art at the turn of the century to the gaudy circus-like atmosphere of the Turner Prize and exhibitions like 'Sensation'.
