Art Lover's Guide to Florida [Paperback]

Anne E F Jeffrey (Author), Aletta D Dreller (Author)


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

April 1, 1998
Art is different things to different people, and here’s a "collection" for everyone. This comprehensive guide book will take you to 86 of the most dynamic and exciting art groupings in Florida. You will find directions, hours of operation, tour/gift shop/restaurant availability, and nearby attractions, as well as anecdotes about distinctive and eccentric personalities connected with the world of art. Visit these art-packed museums and many others:

* At the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, search for the "jokes" that Dali hid in his avant-garde paintings

* The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art in Winter Park houses the largest collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany’s art permanently assembled anywhere. See his famous jewel-colored, leaded-glass lamps and windows, as well as his lesser-known paintings

* At the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, learn how John Ringling picked up circus acts in Europe as he tracked down artworks by Rubens and Raphael

Visit small galleries associated with colleges and universities; community-based art centers that not only exhibit art but also provide art instruction; galleries located in historic homes and mansions—all guided by Florida art hounds Anne E. F. Jeffrey and Aletta Dreller.
