Omtale fra forlaget
This spectacular international best-seller, a magnificent volume, as ambitious and challenging as its subject and a riveting adventure that unfolds year by year, decade by decade; offers a complete and comprehensive look at 100 years of Western artistic achievement.
Presented in a uniquely accessible format with hundreds of engrossing articles and sidebars, Art of the 20th Century gives you instant access to all the important artists, art movements, events and scandals in this momentous, inventive and rebellious century. The informative texts and breathtaking full-color reproductions will inspire you to appreciate art more fully and enable you to discuss it intelligently in any crowd.
In these pages, 100 years of artistic achievement and innovation are displayed in a visually stunning kaleidoscope. Among the many artists whose work is featured are Arp, Braque, Calder, Chagall, Dali, de Kooning, Ernst, Gropius, Klee, Le Corbusier, Magritte, Miró, Mondrian and Picasso, as well as hundreds of others. Far from being a cut-and-dried retrospective assembled years after the fact, this unique chronicle allows you to experience the artists' lives and achievements as they unfold year by year through articles of the day, as well as through the contemporary comments by the artists themselves - and by their critics.
