"I have never read such a stimulating short guide to art" - Lynn Barber, Sunday Times. Grayson Perry, now fully integrated into the art community, seeks to show that each of us can appreciate art (after all, there's a reason this book is called "Playing to the Gallery" and not "Sucking Up to an Academic Elite"). Based on his popular lectures on BBC Radio 4, this funny and personal journey into the art world answers the fundamental questions that might arise for us in an art gallery but seem too embarrassing to ask.
