Reading is a must for summer like swimming, camping, partying under the stars – a perfect way to spend hours on the sand or in your own backyard.
For art lovers who vacation away from galleries or museums, nothing beats a good book on art for a dose of aesthetic (or mental) stimulation. But picking dozens (hundreds!) of new titles published so far this year to find the best art books worth your time can be exhausting. That’s why we’ve done the work – combing through catalogs and best seller lists for the absolute best.
We’ve collected 10 art-related titles including exhibition catalogs, critical writing collections, and artist biographies. Whether it’s a new history of French painter Marcel Duchamp, a raucous biography of painter Francis Bacon in graphic novel form, or an astonishing collection of never-before-seen images by Ray Johnson, there is a book for every kind of art lover.
Take a look at our current favorites below, have fun, and don’t forget your sunscreen.
