HOW TO LOOK AT ART

By

Publisher: Watts

An art appreciation primer interprets the many roles of the artist (philosopher, critic and moralist, dreamer and prophet, recorder of his time, entertainer), brings up the questions of art and style, beauty, emotion, realism, historically orients and briefs from the Renaissance to the present. The illustrations range from the cave paintings of prehistory to contemporary artists. Good introductory material on highschool level.
