The fully-illustrated book also includes an entry about each of the artists featured in the exhibition. Over the past century, a period of unprecedented technological change and global social upheaval, once agreed-upon beliefs, or “truths,” have been cast into doubt, changing and shaping our understanding and experience of reality.

Art in the Age of Truthiness features work by 28 of today's most accomplished and promising international artists, including Ai Weiwei, Vik Muniz and Thomas Demand, who explore our shifting experience of reality.
