Résumé:
This is the first critical guide to the two hundred most important modern and contemporary art sites around the world. Designed for the international art tourist as a critical reference, "Destination Art" provides an accessible chronological survey of important large-scale and public works of twentieth- and twenty-first-century art. Encompassing land and environmental works, sculpture parks, architectural follies, site-specific installations, and entire towns turned over to the display of art, this book chronicles works that have achieved near-mythical status since they were created. Among the artists included are Henri Matisse, Antoni Gaudí, Jean Tinguely, Constantin Brancusi, James Turrell, Richard Serra, Robert Smithson, and Antony Gormley. The book provides visitor information, including hours and admission fees, directions, contact details and websites, and further reading. Fifty art destinations are featured in substantial essays, with accounts of their histories and descriptions of their sites.
