Description

The most comprehensive survey to date of contemporary video and moving-image art from the last decade

Video has never been more prevalent in contemporary art than it is today. At a time when moving images have saturated daily life, artists continue to draw new possibilities from the medium.

From live-action documentation to hand-drawn animation, participatory video-game technologies, and computer-generated imagery, Vitamin V: Video and the Moving Image in Contemporary Art presents over 850 images from more than 100 artists. Discover recent work by established names as well as rising stars in the contemporary art world, all nominated by a global panel of high-profile art-world figures.

Richly illustrated with multiple examples of works by each artist, including stills and installation views, Vitamin V is the first book in Phaidon's celebrated Vitamin series to focus on the moving image. An insightful essay by renowned scholar Erika Balsom surveys the history of video art from the 1960s until today.
