OVERVIEW
A superbly illustrated survey of the major
movements in the visual arts from Impressionism to Post-Modernism
Modern Art is an authoritative introduction to every important development in the visual arts from the late nineteenth
century to the 1980s. Eight critical essays by noted art historians shed light on topics from Impressionism to Dada, Art
Nouveau to Pop Art. The essays are ordered chronologically, and each thoroughly examines the historical context—political,
social, and technological—that shaped the movement under discussion.
The text is accompanied by more than 400 color illustrations of the work of some of the most celebrated figures in art
history, comprising an invigorating multiplicity of visual styles. Anyone seeking a gallery of the masterpieces of
twentieth-century art, together with an informed survey of the period, will find no better single volume. |
