Chaos and Awe

Viac o knihe

If artists at the onset of the 20th century hoped to grasp the apparently limitless possibilities of modernity, the 21st century has opened with a darker and more anxious perspective. Chaos and Awe maps the new consciousness emerging from our encounters with cyberspace, globalism, genetic engineering, and social media through the ever-renewable medium of painting. It's a wild and unpredictable ride into the new unknown. - Eleanor Heartney, art writer and contributing editor, Art in America and Artpress; author of Art & Today and coauthor of The Reckoning: Women Artists of the New Millennium
