Acknowledgments; Introduction; 1 Now and then; 2 The collection; 3 Kaprow's vector; 4 When is the work of art?; 5 Rebranding the readymade; 6 Mobil art services; Notes; Index.

Summary: In the face of unparalleled growth and a truly global audience, the popularity of contemporary art has clearly become a double-edged affair. Today, an unprecedented number of museums, galleries, biennial-style exhibitions, and art fairs display new work in all its variety, while art schools continue to inject fresh talent onto the scene at an accelerated rate. In the process, however, contemporary art has become deeply embedded not only in an expanding art industry, but also the larger cultures of fashion and entertainment. Buskirk argues that understanding the dynamics of art itself cannot be.
