Keep your eyes open for Phaidon Press's revolutionary new art book, cream: contemporary art in culture. Ten curators (see below) have selected 100 contemporary artists (see below) for this exhibition-in-a-book, set to launch this month (October 1998).
Each artist is presented in a four page section made up of high quality color images of the artist's work, a brief text by the curator and a bio of the artist. To situate the art within a broader cultural discourse, each curator has selected a recent critical text by a key contemporary writer.
Phaidon contemporary arts editor, Gilda Williams, and the curators of cream communicated with each other via the internet to plan the project. Their cyber conversation is included in the book, and is now posted in ArtNet magazine's chat room. Enter the chat room and join in with your own comments and questions, as the discourse continues.
Accompanying the launch of the "exhibooktion" is a series of symposia, events and promotional campaigns, which ArtNet will unveil as cream goes public in the next few weeks.
