Situated in the unlikely environs of a former power station on the banks of the River Thames in London, Tate Modern is the most-visited modern art museum in the world--and a global landmark.

An essential companion to 20th- and 21st-century art, the book features an illustrated A-to-Z guide of more than 100 artists, with concise and accessible entries and explanations of key terms in art history and museology.
