For skeptics, art lovers, and the millions of us who visit art galleries every year—and are confused—What Are You Looking At? by former director of London's Tate Gallery Will Gompertz is a wonderfully lively, accessible narrative history of Modern Art, from Impressionism to the present day. What is modern art? Who started it? Why do we either love it or loathe it? And why is it such big money? Join BBC Arts Editor Will Gompertz on a dazzling tour that will change the way you look at modern art forever. From Monet's water lilies to Van Gogh's sunflowers, from Warhol's soup cans to Hirst's pickled shark, hear the stories behind the masterpieces, meet the artists as they really were, and discover the real point of modern art.You will learn: not all conceptual art is bollocks; Picasso is king (but Cézanne is better); Pollock is no drip; Dali painted with his moustache; a urinal changed the course of art; why your 5-year-old really couldn't…

    like a cryptic crossword, the better you know an artist’s way of working, the quicker you will get the clues that he or she has provided.

    What if you’ve popped into a gallery and happen upon the work, unaware of its relationship to Delacroix’s The Death of Sardanapalus? Well, it is still a powerful image and comment on modern life, with an intriguing composition and use of color. But the truth is that Postmodernist art rewards knowledge much like a cryptic crossword, where comprehension comes from solving the puzzle.

    Cindy Sherman (b. 1954) was an early exponent of the Postmodern art of parody and impersonation with her Untitled Film Stills series (1977–80) (see Fig. 31).
