Big illustrations, rich explanatory notes and references make this another must-have from Phaidon press."—Slug"This latest edition to Phaidon’s Themes and Movements series follows hot on the heels of the 2005 exhibition catalog and succeeds in adding depth to the existing survey literature."— Library Journal"Phaidon's Themes and Movements series seeks to provide the late 20th-century art history books of the future."—Art Monthly
