Ever been invited to one of those annoying parties full of trendy people showing off how very clever they are about Art? And you wanted to smack them hard, or at least be able to dazzle them with a wicked witty one-liner? If so, then this is the programme for you -- the Grumpy Guide to Art. It tells you everything you need to know to look and sound profoundly clever and well informed in an art gallery. We also provide a grumpy take on some of the silliest pieces of art on earth - along with some fabulously simple definitions of some of the most famous artistic movements since man picked up a paintbrush. Contributors include: Vic Reeves, Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen, Justin Moorhouse, Jenny Eclair, Nigel Havers, Helen Lederer, Sir Gerry Robinson, Germaine Greer, Stephen Bayley, Diarmuid Gavin, Oona King, Lynn Barber, Jenni Trent Hughes, Lord Poltimore (chairman of Sotheby's), Leslie Primo (National Gallery), Andrew Birch (Private Eye cartoonist)
