The ongoing catalog of contemporary art, now in its fourth volume

Think of this tome as a global go-round of the world’s most influential galleries: if it's hot in the art world today, it's in this book. Emerging artists are featured alongside established greats like David Hockney, Chuck Close, and Brice Marden. A to Z entries include images of important recent work, short biographies, exhibition history, and bibliographical information. The illustrated appendix includes names and contact information for the galleries representing the artists featured, as well as primary market prices and examples of auction results.

Bonus: a special section focusing on the art boom in Eastern Asia, featuring conversations with curators Sunjung Kim of Korea and Kataoka Mami of Japan, an essay by Colin Chinnery entitled "China Japan Korea—The Eastern Front," and Karen Smith's essay on contemporary art in China.
