Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

ForewordThis is a book of jokes about modern art which accompanies an exhibition on the same theme. Among all the ways in which we could have illustrated the astonishing transformation of art in the last seventy-five years have appeared to the public, we believe this is the most telling. The cartoons are often works of art in their own right and, as well as being funny, present a whole range of responses from the highly informed to the ignorant, from a fond amusement to an intense hatred. Some express an authentic criticism of the art and others only the prejudices of those who have not really looked.This entirely unique exhibition, and this book, are offered as a strange but revealing mirror of the art which hangs in our galleries and in other museums of modern art throughout the world.Norman Reid, Director
