Purchase options and add-ons

This companion volume to the author's Learning to Look at Paintings suggests that the best way to understand modern art is to look closely at it, and to consider the different elements that make up each art work: composition, space and form, light and colour, and subject matter.

Engaging and beautifully-written, this guide to art of the modern and postmodern period covers key art movements including:

  • Expressionism
  • Constructivism
  • the Bauhaus
  • Surrealism
  • Pop Art
  • Conceptual Art
  • Young British Art
  • artistic forms such as architecture and design, sculpture and installation as well as works on canvas.

The book is richly illustrated with colour and black and white images by the artists, designers and architects discussed, ranging from Picasso and Matisse to Le Corbusier, Andy Warhol and Rachel Whiteread.

    既に読み始めている事と他は綺麗な状態なので、時に交換等求める気はありませんが、新しい本を買ったはずなのに、初めから表紙の端が折れていました。ちょっと残念な気持ちです。そして、これをお伝えするサービス対応場所がないのもちょっと疑問です。
    本自体は問題ないです。受講予定講座の参考資料として購入しました。いろいろこの本からも学べる事を楽しみにしています。
