An expansive collection catalogue that offers a multiplicity of fresh perspectives on recent modern and contemporary art acquisitions in The Phillips Collection.

An opening essay by Dorothy Kosinski, artist conversations, thematic essays, and 150 plates with 50 object responses by notable contributors, ensure that this will be a lasting art historical resource.
