Art Now: Artists at the Rise of the New Millennium, Uta Grosenick & Burkhard Riemschneider

Publication: Cologne, Taschen, 2005

Formatting: 8vo, pp. 352.

Condition Report: Good. The binding remains tight and structurally sound, with hinges fully intact and no splitting. The pictorial boards exhibit moderate shelf-wear, most notably in the form of visible surface scratching and scuffing across the glossy front panel, alongside minor rubbing to the extremities and slight bumping to the spine ends. Internally, the page block is clean and bright, free from foxing or age-toning, ensuring the vibrant colour plates remain entirely unblemished.

Catalogue Note: This is the trilingual (English, German, French) 25th Anniversary Edition of Art Now, published as part of the Taschen 25 series. Issued in pictorial boards without a dust jacket (as published), this comprehensive volume profiles the artists who decisively shaped the visual culture of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

The anniversary edition remains a highly accessible, heavily illustrated reference, presenting a sweeping panorama of the contemporary art landscape at the turn of the millennium.

A definitive, pocket-sized survey of contemporary art, Art Now showcases the work of 81 pivotal artists who defined the transition into the new millennium. Featuring extensive full-colour illustrations and concise biographical insights, this comprehensive guide spans painting, photography, video, sculpture, and installation, capturing the radical energy and diverse practices of the modern art world in a single volume.

Book Condition Guide

We stock thousands of books in a wide range of conditions. To make things clear and to help you know exactly what to expect, Please refer to these condition categories to understand the condition of the book you will receive.

Condition	Description
New	A brand-new, unread and professionally handled book. Carefully preserved from publication to purchase, these books are offered in the best attainable condition. This grade applies to recently published titles that have not entered long-term storage.
As New	The book is in pristine, original condition as if just published. No signs of use or handling. The dust jacket (if present) is equally flawless. This grade applies to any book that has remained untouched in storage for years.
Fine	The book is close to As New. It remains bright and attractive, but could show minor imperfections to the boards and/or dust jacket (if present). Its pages are typically clean and unmarked.
Near Fine	The book has a number of small flaws, i.e. slight rubbing to the edges, or tiny chips or creases to the dust jacket (if present). Its pages may have faint marks, or creases that are barely perceptible — nothing that detracts from their overall condition.
Very Good	The book maintains its structural integrity, and has no major flaws such as tears to its binding or pages. It may, however, show signs of careful use, handling, or storage — small marks and creases, light foxing. Its dust jacket (if present) remains fully intact, but small tears may be present.
Good	A book that remains intact and readable with complete text pages, but shows moderate signs of wear and use to both the book and dust jacket (if present). It may have noticeable creases, nicks, or stains, and the spine likely shows fading, bumping, and rubbing. There could be writing, underlining, and other marks on some pages, though the majority will be clean and tidy.
Fair	A book with significant wear or damage. The text pages will be complete, but there may be heavy underlining, highlighting and staining throughout, and the book’s endpapers, half-title, and copyright pages could be damaged or missing. The binding could be loose, and the dust jacket (if present) may have notable scuffs or tears. These copies are usually of interest for content, signature(s) or scarcity.
Poor	A heavily worn book whose value lies in its complete and legible text. A poor book will have substantial defects — loose joints or hinges, detached covers, loose and/or missing pages, and could be heavily soiled. A poor book is also known as a reading copy, and although compromised, can hold historical or bibliographic significance.
