Sarah Thornton
33 Artists in 3 Acts offers unprecedented access to a dazzling range of artists, from international superstars to unheralded art teachers. Sarah Thornton's beautifully paced, fly-on-the-wall narratives include visits with Ai Weiwei before and after his imprisonment and Jeff Koons as he woos new customers in London, Frankfurt, and Abu Dhabi. She meets Yayoi Kusama in her studio around the corner from the Tokyo asylum that she calls home. She snoops in Cindy Sherman's closet, hears about Andrea Fraser's psychotherapist, and spends quality time with Laurie Simmons, Carroll Dunham, and their daughters Lena and Grace.
Through these intimate scenes, 33 Artists in 3 Acts explores what it means to be a real artist in the real world. Divided into three cinematic "acts" - politics, kinship, and craft - it investigates artists' psyches, personas, politics, and social networks. Witnessing their crises and triumphs, Thornton turns a wry, analytical eye on their different answers - and non-answers - to the question, "What is an artist?"

If you could sum up 33 Artists in 3 Acts in three words, what would they be?
Fascinating, enlightening and real.What was one of the most memorable moments of 33 Artists in 3 Acts?
I loved Sarah Thorton's subtle comparison of Ai Weiwei with Jeff Koons. I had never considered the artists to be opposites before and yet their work symbolically critiques each other. Brilliant!What about Tavia Gilbert’s performance did you like?
Gilbert's inflection was perfect, her pauses were appropriate and her voice felt warm and welcoming. I enjoyed spending 12 hours in the car with her.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I could never listen to this book in a single sitting. I listened to it in 30 minute chunks, and it gave me a lot to think about at the end of each day.Any additional comments?
This book is for art lovers and delves deep into the art market. A text version of this book with photos would be much more enjoyable to a casual art lover. I would only listen to this audio book if you already have a strong background of contemporary art history and know several of the artists that Thornton writes about.Fabulous!!
