Gordon Burn

Broschiertes Buch

Sex & Violence, Death & Silence

Encounters with recent art

Beschreibung

Focusing on two principle generations - the Royal College pop art of Hockney and his contemporaries, and the YBA sensations of the 1990s - it explores how these artists rose to prominence with their friends and contemporaries, and what happened next. Burn's work is fast becoming a kind of chronicle.
