Download or read book American Folk Art 2 volumes written by Kristin G. Congdon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-03-19 with total page 789 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folk art is as varied as it is indicative of person and place, informed by innovation and grounded in cultural context. The variety and versatility of 300 American folk artists is captured in this collection of informative and thoroughly engaging essays. American Folk Art: A Regional Reference offers a collection of fascinating essays on the life and work of 300 individual artists. Some of the men and women profiled in these two volumes are well known, while others are important practitioners who have yet to receive the notice they merit. Because many of the artists in both categories have a clear identity with their land and culture, the work is organized by geographical region and includes an essay on each region to help make connections visible. There is also an introductory essay on U.S. folk art as a whole. Those writing about folk art to date tend to view each artist as either traditional or innovative. One of the major contributions of this work is that it demonstrates that folk artists more often exhibit both traits; they are grounded in their cultural context and creative in the way they make work their own. Such insights expand the study of folk art even as they readjust readers' understanding of who folk artists are.
Download or read book American Folk Art Buildings written by Steven Burke and published by . This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Houses and schools, Ferris wheels and carousels, stores and factories, temples and theatres, gas stations and bridges, banks and garages, an ice rink and a bowling alley, Grant's Tomb and the Chicago Water Tower, the early structures of Queens NY, and churches in beautiful great number - the buildings of real or envisioned communities were rendered by largely anonymous persons from the late 19th century until about 1950. A remarkably unexplored area of our material culture, American folk art buildings reveal much about history, architecture, imagination, and clever craftsmanship. Hundreds of examples from the nation's largest collection show a remarkably rich range of structures. A first-ever explication of this American artifact conveys reasons, provenance, actual building referents, and apparent delight over decades of making even small a place of one's own.
