Part of Phaidon's popular Cream series, Creamier is an exhibition-in-a-book both for those in the art world and for those who are new to the subject.
Ten international curators each selected the ten emerging artists who, they believed, would change the future of contemporary art. Each artist's work is extensively illustrated over several pages, and the curator who selected them explains why this work has made a particularly important contribution to the art world. A biography and
bibliography for each artist provides further factual support.

Each curator has also written a short text about a key creative work - whether a novel, a film, an artwork, an essay or an artist's studio. These are included in the 'Sources' section. The ten curators have also taken part in a lively roundtable conversation, discussing  issues in contemporary art and sharing the process and motivation behind their selections.
