Book Synopsis The Rare Art Traditions by : Joseph Alsop
Download or read book The Rare Art Traditions written by Joseph Alsop and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-08-15 with total page 750 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A cultural and social history of art collecting, art history, and the art market In The Rare Art Traditions, Joseph Alsop offers a wide-ranging cultural and social history of art collecting, art history, and the art market. He argues that art collecting is the basic element in a remarkably complex and historically rare behavioral system, which includes the historical study of art, the market for buying and selling art, museums, forgery, and the astonishing prices commanded by some works of art. The Rare Art Traditions tells the story of three important traditions of art collecting: the classical tradition that began in Greece, the Chinese tradition, and the Western tradition. The result is a major original contribution to art history.

Book Synopsis Beauty and Art (Classic Reprint) by : Aldam Heaton
Download or read book Beauty and Art (Classic Reprint) written by Aldam Heaton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beauty and Art The idiosyncrasies of artists and designers have not unfrequently led them into strange vagaries, but here there is no question of a mere eccentricity. We are confronted by a definite intention to introduce entire novelty, not only ignoring the design of the past, but, as far as may be, in defiance of it. It is easy to see how designers might have been irritated ten or twenty years ago by the bad examples of every class of design which they saw around them, and our first impression may be that their atti tude may have been a mere reaction based on an erroneous supposition that the past had grown so wholly debased that it must be entirely deserted, and fresh beginnings made on fresh lines. However mis taken such an assumption may be, it is clearly within the range of possibility that to certain minds, in certain conditions, such an argument might seem warrantable.

Book excerpt: Instagram sensation Clark Little shares his most remarkable photographs from inside the breaking wave, with a foreword by world surfing champion Kelly Slater. “One of the world’s most amazing water photographers . . . Now we get to experience up-close these moments of bliss.”—Jack Johnson, musician and environmentalist Surfer and photographer Clark Little creates deceptively peaceful pictures of waves by placing himself under the deadly lip as it is about to hit the sand. "Clark's view" is a rare and dangerous perspective of waves from the inside out. Thanks to his uncanny ability to get the perfect shot--and live to share it--Little has garnered a devout audience, been the subject of award-winning documentaries, and become one of the world's most recognizable wave photographers. Clark Little: The Art of Waves compiles over 150 of his images, including crystalline breaking waves, the diverse marine life of Hawaii, and mind-blowing aerial photography. This collection features his most beloved pictures, as well as work that has never been published in book form, with Little's stories and insights throughout. Journalist Jamie Brisick contributes essays on how Clark gets the shot, how waves are created, swimming with sharks, and more. With a foreword by eleven-time world surfing champion Kelly Slater and an afterword by the author on his photographic practice and technique, Clark Little: The Art of Waves offers a rare view of the wave for us to enjoy from the safety of land.
Book Synopsis Art and Criticism by : Theodore Child
Download or read book Art and Criticism written by Theodore Child and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art and Criticism: Monographs and Studies The following monographs and studies have been collected and published in a volume in the hope that they may be of use and of interest to the many refined minds which arc seeking guidance or confirmation in their theoretical or effective admiration of works of art. Their chief merit, supposing that they have merit at all, is the fact that they are free from verbiage. In art criticism, in the opinion of the writer, the qualities to be most desired and esteemed arc sympathy, delicacy of observation and appreciation, and intelligent, reasoned, and lucid admiration. The appreciative and the Creative intellect have certain points in common. No one can ever be taught to see nature, to feel nature, and to express it. The painter of genius will show you how he applies his brush, saying: "See how I do it; go and do likewise, and may God help you!" And if God does not help you, your painting will not be worth talking about. The really great painters arc their own masters; they are men of rare and special temperament, and through this temperament they look at Nature and sec beautiful personal visions such as none have ever before behold. Artists of this high rank are born at rare intervals in the course of the world's history ; they fix their visions in color or in marble, and then disappear forever, carrying away with them the secrets of their mysterious intellectual and visual processes. The first aim of the painter is beauty, or, so far as the portrait is concerned, at least character; the only model and the only Standard is Nature, and the whole theory and practice of painting is subordinated to the largest and the most difficult of all the arts, namely, learning to sec. Nor is the summum of art the literal imitation of Nature. The finest human model, the most charming Landscape, cannot be well imitated except it be interpreted by the intelligence of the artist.
