The collection provides a focused overview of contemporary art from 1985 to 1995 and its historical antecedents. It is especially known for its concentration on the artists who emerged in the mid to late 1980s to define a new conceptually based aesthetic. The collection also has a strong emphasis on the works of younger group of artists who have come to prominence in the 1990s. Also included are works by early and mid twentieth century artists who have been especially influential for the current generation. Many of the most influential artists of the 1980s and 1990s such as Katharina Fritsch, Robert Gober, Mike Kelley, Jeff Koons, and Kiki Smith are represented by some of their most significant works. The collection provides extensive overviews of the careers of Gober and Koons. The book documents every major work in the collection and includes texts and statements provided by the artists.
