Every year, tourists, art lovers, and art buyers flock to the Royal Academy of Arts' Summer Exhibition, making it among the most popular attractions in London -- and one of the best places to buy new art. Now, for the many Americans who follow this celebrated annual event, the catalogue for the world's largest open contemporary art exhibition is being published in the United States for the first time. Overflowing with bold color illustrations, the volume offers a unique view of the best new works by leading painters, sculptors, printmakers, and architects of our time, one of whom will win the Charles Wollaston Award, one of the most prestigious art prizes in Britain.
