Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Art Criticism: Comprising a Treatise on the Principles of Man's Nature as Addressed by Art; Together With a Historic Survey of the Methods of Art Execution in the Departments of Drawing, Sculpture, Architecture, Painting, Landscaping Gardening, and the Decorative Arts The following Treatise on the Elements of Art Criticism has originated in a conviction that the general neglect of early instruction in the principles of Art Execution is a serious defect in American education; which defect may be, and therefore should be, removed. The educated American tourist finds him self mortified amid the galleries and before the monuments of Art in the Old World, because, unlike European visitors, he has no preparatory acquaintance with the first principles of Art, kindred to his early instruction in Science and Literature, which would make him at home among such treasures, and fit him to appreciate, to enjoy and to improve his privilege. The American legislator, obliged by his position to take action in meeting the great and growing demand for public expenditures in the department of Painting, Sculpture and Architec ture, is harassed with the apprehension, that, having no independent judgment of his own, he may be misled by unworthy and interested men, who are ever in advance of genuine artists in pressing their own claims. The young Amer ican artist has rarely access to technical, historical and critical treatises on Art, which may give clearness and comprehensiveness to his investigations and conceptions. To this special lack of these several special classes must be added the general want felt by the entire mass of the American people, male and female, youths and adults, pre-eminently an educated and reading people; who, though supplied with elementary treatises in every department of science and philosophy, search in vain in American and even in English libraries for a condensed and comprehensive work on Art, which shall meet their general need. The demand is a peculiar one; and the effort to meet it is attended with great difficulty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Art Criticism The following treatise on Art Criticism, an abridged edition of the larger work published one year ago, is specially designed to meet a demand whose existence has now been called forth. The aim of both is to awaken, to foster and to aid the growing aspiration of American students and amateurs in art. The Introduction to the larger work indicates the lack in American education which creates this demand, the methods by which teachers in other lands and ages have supplied this common aesthetic need, and the nature and ground of the author's attempt. The conviction is general that a compendious elementary treatise on the principles of design and the methods of execution in the fine arts is a special desideratum in American literature. The general education of American youth, male and female, the aspiration of men in every pursuit to fit themselves for cultured society, the growing fondness for foreign travel, have awakened a desire for compendious information as to the great world of art.

Book excerpt: A veteran art critic helps us make sense of modern and contemporary art The landscape of contemporary art has changed dramatically during the last hundred years: from Malevich's 1915 painting of a single black square and Duchamp's 1917 signed porcelain urinal to Jackson Pollock's midcentury "drip" paintings; Chris Burden's "Shoot" (1971), in which the artist was voluntarily shot in the arm with a rifle; Urs Fischer's "You" (2007), a giant hole dug in the floor of a New York gallery; and the conceptual and performance art of today's Ai Weiwei and Marina Abramovic. The shifts have left the art-viewing public (understandably) perplexed. In The Art of Looking, renowned art critic Lance Esplund demonstrates that works of modern and contemporary art are not as indecipherable as they might seem. With patience, insight, and wit, Esplund guides us through the last century of art and empowers us to approach and appreciate it with new eyes. Eager to democratize genres that can feel inaccessible, Esplund encourages viewers to trust their own taste, guts, and common sense. The Art of Looking will open the eyes of viewers who think that recent art is obtuse, nonsensical, and irrelevant, as well as the eyes of those who believe that the art of the past has nothing to say to our present.
