1.Seven Days in the Art WorldSeven Days in the Art World
from W.W. Norton & Co.
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
This is, hands-down, the single best guide for outsiders to the inner life of the art world, from the fledgling artists hoping to make their mark to the affluent collectors and the dealers, curators and advisors who surround them.
Her structure is carefully chosen and works beautifully --... more info

2.Loot: The Battle over the Stolen Treasures of the Ancient WorldLoot: The Battle over the Stolen Treasures of the Ancient World
from Times Books
Price: $19.80

Customer Review:
Think about the current placement of the Rosetta Stone. It was discovered in Egypt by Napoleon's army in 1799. Then the French army capitulated to the British, with the stipulation that all the specimens uncovered by the savants who accompanied Napoleon had to be turned over. The stone was... more info

3.Wall and PieceWall and Piece
from Random House UK
Price: $23.10

Customer Review:
I have this book on my desk. Every loves it and I think its very creative and it approaches graffiti as an art rather and in a different point of view. Banksy must be a very smart or weird guy.

4.EquusEquus
from Abrams
Price: $37.80

Customer Review:
Although there are a few very beautiful - even magical - photos in this book, I regret buying it. It is not worth its price. I am a fan of artistic photos, so the fact that the most pictures show only parts of horses doesn't bother me. What does, is that there is so much space lost in this book.... more info

from Sterling
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:
This book has some fabulous paintings and drawings which as the book states can be really deceptive. My children are both fascinated with it and spend lots of time studying it. They enjoy showing it to their friends and it is very entertaining. A great coffee table book.

6.Art and Fear: Observations On the Perils (and Rewards) of ArtmakingArt & Fear: Observations On the Perils (and Rewards) of Artmaking
from Image Continuum Press
Price: $10.36

Customer Review:
I got a lot out of the first couple of chapters in this book, but more often than not, I was frustrated with the tone, the flow, and the style of writing. I sometimes stopped and asked myself, "What is the point they are trying to make?" It also had a sort of joyless and depressing tone. It was hard... more info

7.Vision and Art: The Biology of SeeingVision and Art: The Biology of Seeing
from Harry N. Abrams

Customer Review:
This is a most outstanding work on the anatomic and physiologic concepts underlying visual perception. It is aimed at any interested layman and should be required reading for visual artists, neuro-physiologists and any vision science practitioners. It requires attentive reading initially, but the... more info

from Harper Paperbacks
Price: $9.95

Customer Review:
This is a great little book and perfect as a kind of nostalgic "stocking stuffer" for Christmas. (Think "George Bailey," not "Billy Bob Thornton.") I don't know if it's at all for children, but I really appreciated the book for all the fond, not so fond, but very funny memories looking at the... more info
