Product Description
In this rich, readable anthology, 16 of the 20th century’s leading artistic innovators talk forcefully about the theories that drive their work—from Albert Gleizes and Jean Metzinger’s 1912 presentation of cubist theory to Henry Moore’s comments, three decades later, on sculpture and primitive art. Newly added essays by Kurt Schwitters, Max Ernst, El Lissitzky, and Fernand Léger include observations on dada, surrealism, and the "machine esthetic." Challenging commentaries provide art historians and theorists with plenty of food for thought and continuing inspiration of all artists and art students.
