A brilliant anthology of the 40-plus year history of FMR, the Italian magazine that taught the world to see art.

Founded by Franco Maria Ricci (FMR) in Italy in 1982, FMR is the ultimate art magazine, an art insider's treasure trove and a touchstone in the formation of personal taste for the past half century. This superbly produced book, featuring some 300 images as well as concise chapter intros and acute captions illuminating the entire history of the sumptuous black-background magazine, is itself a true collector's item. Ricci traversed the boundaries of art, architecture, and design, and his unprecedented magazine became an unequivocal success, its British, French, Spanish, and Italian editions combining to make it the world's largest art magazine of its heyday. FMR is cherished by curators and gallerists around the world for its presentation of daringly bold world art of every description and contributions from some of the world's greatest writers. Paused in 2009, the quarterly publication was revived in 2021 and today continues to be read internationally by discerning readers and art lovers, leading the growing return to luxury printed publications.

This book, filled with the very best of FMR, is essential for art lovers seeking to expand their knowledge, taste, and imagination.
