Bold colors, stylish type sizes and faces, arresting full-page photographs, and sophisticated layout and design work together to make perusing this handsome compendium on currents in contemporary art one of the most exhilarating, page-turning experiences of the year.... Fascinating insights.... Highly recommended.
