What Are You Looking At?: The Surprising, Shocking, and Sometimes Strange Story of 150 Years of Modern Art

by Will Gompertz

Will Gompertz's What Are You Looking At? is a witty, fast-moving tour through 150 years of modern art that finally makes the whole baffling parade make sense. It's the book for anyone who has stood before a blank canvas in a museum and thought, surely they're joking.
