S’il était possible, jusque dans les années 1960, de ne classer les oeuvres d’art que dans les deux seules catégories de la peinture et de la sculpture, les années suivantes marquent quant à elles une rupture fondamentale et définitive avec les certitudes de ce système de classification. À la peinture, le métal ou la pierre s’ajoute alors une profusion de matières et matériaux – lumière, air, sons, mots, personnes, nourriture, etc. – que les artistes modèlent, agencent et fusionnent à leur guise afin de créer des oeuvres qui remettent en question la définition même de l’art. Cet ouvrage tente de rendre compte des profonds changements survenus dans l’art en Europe et aux Etats-Unis, du Pop Art et du minimalisme aux installations en passant par l’art conceptuel, le Land Art et le Body Art, et dresse un tableau clair des innombrables styles, formes, pratiques et idées apparus au cours de ces quatre dernières décennies. Accompagné d’un tableau chronologique mettant en relation les différents mouvements, artistes et manifestations ainsi que d’une bibliographie complète, L’Art depuis 1960 est un ouvrage essentiel pour comprendre les débats actuels sur l’art contemporain.
