Summary: stunning collection
Comment: I found this book to be one of the most stunning collections of essays and short stories that I have ever run across. The works show these artists in a more personal light than we can access through their visual work. Absolute must for any contemporary artist fan.

Summary: Documenting 80's self-indulgence
Comment: I started reading this book (through the library) when it originally came out in 1987 and I was hooked on it. Finally, i thought, an open book into the thoughts (through writtings) of some of the most prominent contemporary artists of the day. Now, (2000) I have finally acquired my own copy, and I am thoroughly enjoying it again. Do not expect literary masterpieces from this anthology. These are not 'authors' in the strict sense of the words, but mostly visual and multi-media artists who included writings in their opus. They are not manifestos or critical pieces (not a lot of great 'ideas' either), but just 'writings': as self-indulgent as the 80's post-modern art to which they belong. If you like the art from these artists, you will enjoy their writings.
