Reviews

"This is now the definitive English-language sourcebook on Merz, Pistoletto, Paolini and company, thanks to its rich selection of images and texts."-Bookforum "Get hold of Arte Povera... It is both compendium and critique, with artists' statements, a chronology and commentary. It contextualizes the work, and the pictures are great."-Adrian Searle, Guardian "Phaidon's Themes and Movements series seeks to provide the late 20th-century art history books of the future."-Art Monthly
