Book Reviews of The Artist's Joke (Whitechapel: Documents of Contemporary Art)

Book Review: Most interesting
Summary: 4 Stars

This is the most interesting book I've read from the Documents of Contemporary Art series. Not lmited to art mechanics, expands its concepts through humor to religion, society and arts. As almost every text stresses: humor hasn't nearly had the attention it deserves from thinkers.
