A funny, inviting, and full-color book about art for people who don't know about "art"--featuring new illustrations by David Shrigley

What is art, where do I find it, and once I'm in front of it, what am I supposed to think about it?

For too long, art has been seen as something intimidating and exclusive. But like playing or listening to music, cooking and eating great food, or reading books or watching films, making and looking at art deserves to be an enriching part of all our lives.

So here, from Kate Bryan--a twenty-year art-world veteran--is a nifty way to take back art on your own terms. From where it is to what it is, to tips on how to actually enjoy famous artworks like the Mona Lisa, to how to own art and make art at home, through to vital advice for making a career as an artist and even how to make your dog more cultural, How to Art gives art to everyone, and makes it fun.

Laced throughout are original artworks by the very down-to-earth artist David Shrigley.

Kate Bryan is an arts broadcaster and Chief Art Director for Soho House where since 2016 she has curated and overseen a global art collection of over 10,000 artworks. She fell in love with art as a teenager from reproductions in books that she enjoyed between shifts at Burger King and Gala Bingo. She started her art career at the British Museum and has since worked in galleries in London and Hong Kong, where she completed her postgraduate degree. Kate also mentors artists from under-represented backgrounds. Passionate about demystifying the subject of 'art', she is friends with the artist David Shrigley, a fellow campaigner for art as a tool for well-being, and they have been plotting this book that allows everyone to come to art for the past few years.
