Our take
AI-draftedPetry's survey treats the mirror not as a static art-historical motif but as a device that keeps changing meaning, tracing a line from Van Eyck's Arnolfini portrait through Kusama's infinity rooms to the smartphone screen as the newest reflective surface people obsess over. Reviewers have singled out the breadth of the roster, more than 150 artists across generations and continents, as the book's real achievement.
In the press
“Captures how mirrors appeal to more than just human vanity, but are objects of magic, transformation and power.”
