Talk Art offers readers a wide ranging look at art。 While the authors come from the arts，t their fields were acting and music。 Together， the two have engaged in learning more about contemporary art。 They eventually began a pod cast called Talk Art and then came this title。 Tovey and Diamant begin by sharing some of their own history with the readers; this helps those picking up this book to know something of the authors’ evolution。What follows are chapters on many topics。 To name a few， there ar Talk Art offers readers a wide ranging look at art。 While the authors come from the arts，t their fields were acting and music。 Together， the two have engaged in learning more about contemporary art。 They eventually began a pod cast called Talk Art and then came this title。 Tovey and Diamant begin by sharing some of their own history with the readers; this helps those picking up this book to know something of the authors’ evolution。What follows are chapters on many topics。 To name a few， there are Performance Art， Public Art， Photography， Sound Art， Ceramics and more。 Further， they do not shy away from the political。This title also includes a helpful section on ways to become involved with contemporary art whether it is seeing art， creating a collection， being an artist or reading more。This book is lavishly illustrated。 Dip in anywhere or go through this title in order。 A reader will walk away with something each time。Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more

Okay guide to contemporary art I don't think it necessarily meets its premise of making it easier to talk to about contemporary art but there are some nice introductions to some artists。I received a copy from Netgalley， all opinions are my own Okay guide to contemporary art I don't think it necessarily meets its premise of making it easier to talk to about contemporary art but there are some nice introductions to some artists。I received a copy from Netgalley， all opinions are my own 。。。more

Really enjoyed this introduction to the different types of contemporary art。 As someone who dabbles in mixed media， I found the authors advice to artists very helpful。 I also really enjoyed reading more about how to collect art and build your own collection。 Probably the most interesting chapter was that on Public Art with various artworks in London that I had never noticed being highlighted and discussed。 I found the chapter on Photography fascinating but a bit too brief。 I would have loved to Really enjoyed this introduction to the different types of contemporary art。 As someone who dabbles in mixed media， I found the authors advice to artists very helpful。 I also really enjoyed reading more about how to collect art and build your own collection。 Probably the most interesting chapter was that on Public Art with various artworks in London that I had never noticed being highlighted and discussed。 I found the chapter on Photography fascinating but a bit too brief。 I would have loved to have seen this fleshed out a bit more。 Overall a good introduction and I look forward to exploring their podcast to hear more。 。。。more
