Containing nearly 200 entries on individual artists, artworks and the richness and strengths of the museum’s collection – and lavishly illustrated with approximately 500 full-colour and black-and-white images – this comprehensive book is bolstered by three major essays and new scholarship on topics ranging from the Hirshhorn's collection history, future, and unique building, to its groundbreaking conservation work.Delving into the museum’s prolific and far-reaching holdings, from 20th-century sculptural masterworks to the trailblazing works of mid-century to the new-media works of the contemporary era, the book is an ambitious scholarly assessment of 20th- and 21st-century modern and contemporary art.Artists include: John Akomfrah, Josef Albers, Karel Appel, Ed Atkins, Robert Barry, Constantin Brancusi, Nicolas De Staël, Marcel Duchamp, Thomas Eakins, Nicole Eisenman, Sam Francis, Paul Gauguin, Camille Henrot, Barbara Hepworth, Arthur Jafa, Jasper Johns, Jennie C.
