In Art to Come Terry Smith—who is widely recognized as one of the world's leading historians and theorists of contemporary art—traces the emergence of contemporary art and further develops his concept of contemporaneity.

This is the third in the five-yearly series of surveys of what is happening in rock art studies around the world.
