American Artists On Art : From 1940 To 1980
ISBN: 9780064301121 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From the Preface: The fact that so much of modern art has devoted itself to the exploration and assertion of its own identity is reflected in, but does not explain, the increasing amount of writing and talking on the part of contemporary artists. Rather, the whole history of the changing role of art and artists in a democratic, industrial, and technological society stands behind the spate of artists' words and the public's hunger for them--even some of the general public out there beyond art's little circle. Statements by artists appeal somewhat the way drawings do: they bring us, or at least...

Modern Art and Modernism offers firsthand material for the study of issues central to the development of modern art, its theory, and criticism.
