Grande's latest book, "Dialogues in Diversity: From Marginal to Mainstream", is inspired by a series of dialogues with artists. It paints a wide spectrum, for it ranges from discussions with well known international artists including Antony Gormley in the UK and Alan Sonfish in the USA to indigenous artists and those from marginalized cultures. In each case, the artist has something important to say to us. "Dialogues in Diversity" will make readers aware that the centres of the art world feed on the margins, just as artists from countries as diverse as Senegal, Chile, Mexico, and Norway have unique perspectives to offer the mainstream art market of today's Paris, London or New York. Many of these artists echo Grande's own concern: What is the relationship of art to the environment - both natural landscape and cityscape? Just how can art make us see and think about the world around us? What can art do to preserve the future of our planet? And how can it enrich out lives? This is far removed from the average book of academic art criticism for it is an exciting engagement with the reader about the ways art impacts our lives.
