I collect these lovely little books. Rather oddly this one on Modern Art has a reproduction of Bacon's incredible 'Pope with Fan Canopy' from around 1951, which was later destroyed by Bacon.

Oh, yes. These are all lovely. Something nice about 'small' hardbacked books isn't there?
ReplyDeleteFunny how the phrase "modern art" sounds so quaint and cosy nowadays. When did its replacement, "contemporary art", start to take over?
ReplyDeleteProbably in the late 60s/early 70s when Conceptualism took off, along with Post-Modernism in the 70s/80s.
ReplyDeleteModernism was suddenly old. It was no longer enough to be merely modern, art had to be of the now - contemporary.
