With no real center to today’s art world, the February release of WorldWide ArtBooks’ (WWAB) Annual International Contemporary Masters Volume III shows that innovation in art is still thriving in many, perhaps unexpected, corners of the globe. The book, produced by international curator, Despina Tunberg, traces the latest trends of today’s art, by featuring the works of select artists from around the world, who are helping shape the evolution of modern art.
