<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>WHAT MAKES A CULT ARTIST? </b> <p/> Whether pioneering in their craft, fiercely and undeniably unique, or critically divisive, <b> cult artists come in all shapes and guises</b>. Some gain instant fame, others instant notoriety, and more still remain anonymous until a chance change in fashion sees their work propelled into the limelight. <p/> In this nifty little book, Ana Finel Honigman handpicks a selection of inspiring artists you should know - from the iconic <b>Salvador Dalí</b> and<b> Frida Kahlo</b>, to <b>radical activists</b> such as the <b>Guerrilla Girls</b> and <b>Ana Mendieta</b>. The artistic mediums explored are similarly varied, with sculptors, performance, graffiti and fine artists alike. From little knowns with small, devout followings, to superstars gracing the covers of magazines, each is special in their individuality and their ability to <b>inspire, antagonise and delight</b>. <p/><i>Cult Artists</i> is an <b>essential addition to any art lover's library</b>, as well as an entertaining introduction to our <b>weird and wonderful art world</b>. <p/><b><i>Also in the series: Cult Filmmakers, Cult Musicians + Cult Writers</i></b> <p/><b>The artists: </b> <br> Dan Attoe, Balthus, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jospeh Beuys, Christian Boltanski, Louise Bourgeois, Leigh Bowery, Chris Burden, Sophie Calle, Chapman Brothers, Judy Chicago, Joseph Cornell, Molly Crabapple, Salvador Dali, Niki de Saint Phalle, Marcel Duchamp, El Anatsui, James Ensor, H.
