Across the globe there are scores of beautiful and unusual works of art that are largely unseen or fail to receive the critical acclaim they deserve. The Best Art You've Never Seen is your essential companion to this hidden world of artistic treasures.
Travelling from Peru to Papua New Guinea, The Best Art You've Never Seen restores to view 100 wonderful treasures - uncovering neglected artistic wonders from off-beat corners of the world to store rooms in the world's great museums. Written by art expert and former museum director Julian Spalding, The Best Art You've Never Seen takes you into a world of beautiful and arresting artefacts and reveals their amazing stories.
It unveils a surprising and unfamiliar alternative canon of works to offer a fresh and controversial take on the world of art.
