American Art,
By S. Tsch "Stsch" (WV, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: American Art: A Cultural History (Paperback)
The History of American as seen throught the art it produced. A long and colorful history, showing that nothing exists in a vacumn. Art both influences and is influenced by events and ideas that surround it.

Why did he write this book?,
By
This review is from: American Art: A Cultural History (Paperback)
The first and last chapters of this book make me wonder why the author actually decided to cover the subject. They show an increadible bias against the early colonists, Christianity, and western society in general. It makes me wonder why he wished to cover the topic of American Art History in the first place if he hates it so much. I also found his interpretations inaccurate on several occasions as he used scientific knowledge that would not have been known at the time the artwork was made.
He does, however have a very good selection of rare artwork and shows the mixing of diferent styles very well. |
