As the primary or lead author of more than forty volumes of interviews with contemporary artists, of numerous exhibition catalogues for museums around the world, and of influential books on curation, he has established himself as a pivotal figure in contemporary art and culture.

Format: Paperback
Beautiful illustrations in the book. The flow of the book was a little awkward while using it as a large group read aloud.
