‘If modern art and its arcane terminology leave you thinking it’s all a load of old Pollocks, this adroit little app will help to demystify modern and contemporary artworks and theories.’
– Sunday Times

For many of us the language in which modern art is described is as mystifying as the art itself. This comprehensive but concise art dictionary is the answer. Each term is defined with clarity and precision, putting themes, movements, media and art practices at the reader’s fingertips.

Features:
+ More than 300 art terms covering movements, styles, schools, techniques and art theory with 43 illustrations
+ Fully searchable entries
+ Browse terms by different categories or through the image gallery
+ No wireless connection required
+ Available for the iPad and iPhone

‘Contains brilliantly simple definitions of complicated theoretical ideas … clear, contextualising and enlightening.’
– Sunday Telegraph, review of the print edition
