5.0 out of 5 stars
Versailles a stage of the past, and for the present and the future., Sep 6 2010
By Alexandra M. Lucas - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jeff Koons Versailles (Hardcover)
This is a fantastic book. Might I say first that I was impartial to the art of Jeff Koons...until now. I went to the book store to look at this book for a uni assessment.I have to say I wasn't at all amused at the thought of spending $90 on a contemporary art book. This definitely changed as I rapidly turned the pages. I have studied Versailles and the art of this period and in hindsight I would say that I was a naive traditionalist art history student. I have only read the foreword (I am 498words into my assessment...I just had to share this) and I feel as though the contemporary art world has opened it's doors to me! Freaking awesome is the only way to put it. I already have so much to write. I never would have envisaged Versailles as a stage for contemporary art, now I only pray that I can get hold of the next installment- Murakami super-flat artist in Versailles 2010 (this artist I do know well!).This book=
About 15% words and 85% super HD massive photographs of Jeff Koons art in Versailles. The reading is accessible (I know nothing little about contemporary art) and very informative for a range of readers. The rationale of the exhibition is clear. The photographs are exceptional. Research and coffee table book in one.
Conclusion: I feel inspired to read more about contemporary art- and definitely see more of it!
