₺1,200.00 TRY
Playful yet insightful, it uncovers the human, humorous, and sometimes strange side of art and artists. Inside, you’ll discover which artist’s work is stolen most often, the names of artists’ beloved pets, legendary creative couples, unusual collections, surprising side hustles, and famous artists who were rejected from art school.
From Picasso to Sophie Calle, James Turrell to Louise Nevelson, the book reveals how artists live, love, work, and fail—often in ways that are as fascinating as their art.
Organised into five highly readable chapters—Artists, Art School, Art Studio, Art Museum, and Art World—this covetable volume offers a fresh, entertaining perspective on creativity and the culture that surrounds it.
An essential, page-turning companion for anyone curious about art beyond the gallery wall.
