CREAM 3
Description
The 100 artists in CREAM 3 have risen to an international platform since 1997 and - in the opinion of the curators who have selected them - are in the process of taking it over, at an explosive pace. The vast variety of ideas and forms in the global scene of contemporary art are presented in CREAM 3 through 400 pages, arranged A-Z, each artist's work represented in two double-page spreads, accompanied by a short biography and bibliography and a text by the curator who selected them. This virtual exhibition of new art is preceded by a virtual conversation - an internet discussion amongst the 10 curators - each a noted name and involved in the staging of new developments in art.
New to this edition of cream is each curator's selection of a 'Source' artist who they consider to have influenced or created the context for the artistic new generation. The work of these 10 'Source' artists provides a wider historical framework in which to view the new work. In its momentous entirety, CREAM 3 offers an up-to-the-minute and in-depth overview of new art in all media from painting and sculpture to installation, photography, performance, video and digital media.

"It's a fine addition to the cream series, and one that budding Saatchis would do well to invest in before reaching for the cheque book."-GQ"A work of art in itself."-Creative Review
"A beautiful chunky tome of a book... Art purists beware, this book is not for you: free thinking liberals you are free to embrace."-Fused
