Very clear. I still dont't like modern art but now I at least understand why they do it.

Althought book is simple and clear, modern Art still remains a big mystery for me. Book gives basics what is art, purpose, styles and a bit history of it.

Explained the thoughts behind 'modern' art and how art changed as a result of photography. Lots of illustrations and exampless too.
