Download or read book History of Modern Italian Art Classic Reprint written by Ashton Rollins Willard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 782 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Modern Italian Art IN writing this book I trust that I have not taken a wholly one-sided view of my subject. I certainly have not been conscious of any wish either to de monstrate that the art-work of the period under con sideration was wholly good or that it was wholly bad. At the beginning I shared the feeling which we all have to some extent, that modern Italian art was degenerate, far removed in its standards and in its results from the art of the best period; but much study of the subject has led me to alter that view very materially. No one could have followed my line of work, step by step, without becoming convinced that the common feeling, to which I have alluded, was based to a certain extent upon prejudice and lack of information, and that a more generous attitude ought to be taken toward the men who, in the face of many discouragements, have so bravely struggled to redeem the art of the peninsula from the reproach which has been cast upon it.

Download or read book Modern Book Illustration A Few Examples of Halftone Process Classic Reprint written by James S. Conant Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Book Illustration: A Few Examples of Halftone Process The field of illustrated books is enlarging so rapidly, and the public becoming so discriminating, that the publisher has more than ever to consider quality in illustrations. Mere copies of pictures such as are produced generally by engravers of commer cial work will not fill present demands. The hand and eye of the trained artist are necessary. The james S. Conant company have always made a specialty of the highest grade of halftone reproductions and take pleasure in submitting a few specimens of their recent engravings. They call attention in particular to the 200 screen reproductions, these showing more detail than possible with the 150 screen usually employed, and yet not losing brilliancy in effect. This class of art work is particularly advised where the best in quality of bookmaking is considered. This work will have the supervision of Mr. Wm. Jay Dana, whose high standing as an artist and as an engraver is well known, and it is hoped the benefit of his suggestions in matters pertaining to the selection of originals, to retouching, to the re etching and hand engraving of halftone plates will be of material assistance to those calling upon us. Correspondence or personal interviews with publishers and others interested in the best halftone illustrations is solicited.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Etchings and Their Collectors Last but not least, to a friend, who at my request has written the Introductory Chapter to this book, who is a lover of fine prints, and who has frequently helped me with advice on matters relating to them. The photogravure process which has been used for the illustrations was considered the most suitable for the particular etchings which have been reproduced. NO mechanical process can approximate original work. It would be lamentable if it did. This process, however, gives some idea Of the beauty of the originals without detracting from the skill of the Artists by too closely resembling original work.

Download or read book Western Art and the New Era written by Katherine Sophie Dreier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-23 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Western Art and the New Era: An Introduction to Modern Art Art has now been amongst us for almost two decades, the average public finds it difficult to see any con nection between it and what they consider art. The Societe Anonyme Inc. (museum of Modern Art) in New York, which was founded to promote the serious expression of the serious study of serious men in the art world of today, became very conscious of this confusion. I was therefore asked to give a series of lectures to help the public to a clearer understanding. Many requests have come to me to repeat them, not only in America but in the Orient as well. It seemed, therefore, advisable to rearrange them in book form, to reach a larger public. If I can help anyone to a clearer understanding of what art is, to have them realize that it has nothing to do with personal taste, is not alone the mastery of technique or a repetition of the art of the past, but that art to be alive must be creative, then my hours of labor will not have been in vain. My desire is to make the present generation realize that art is not dead, can never die while man is, but is constantly in the making.

Download or read book Classic Modern written by Deborah Dietsch and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2000 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no hotter style today than the cooler than cool work of modern designers and architects from the 1940s and 50s. Endlessly inventive and emminently livable, mid-century modernism has an optimism and confidence born of postwar abundance, and a spirited elegance that appeals powerfully fifty years later. In CLASSIC MODERN, design expert Deborah Dietsch introduces readers to the basic tenets of modern design and explains how the simple yet inspired forms typical of this style were so readily disseminated into mainstream American culture. Filled throughout with enticing examples of mid-century pieces from such timeless designers as Charles and Ray Eames, Eero Saarinen, Arne Jacobsen, and George Nelson, this beautiful book recaptures the excitement of the period's brilliant designs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Making of a Modern Museum In 1919 the Wednesday Afternoon Club asked my sister, Eleanor Garnier Hewitt, one of its members, to write a paper on "The Making of a Modern Museum," which they found so interesting that they paid her the unusual compliment of printing it privately for her fellow-members. As many others were desirous to read it, the Club kindly consented to the publication of a second edition, which is also exhausted. The demand for it still continues, so this third edition is now issued as a small tribute to the memory of my sister, who devoted all her talents and the greater part of her time to create and develop the Museum for the Arts of Decoration, which was inaugurated at Cooper Union in 1895 in honor of its Founder, Peter Cooper, in order to complete the work he originally planned.

It is addressed to laymen in general, and primarily to the reader who knows something of famous work - some thing, let us say, of Titian, Watteau, Corot, Turner, and even of a few American painters - but who knows very little as to the various tendencies of modern art and is not yet familiar with the names of its leaders. To this layman I have endeavored to bring the move ments and the significance of modern painting, to gether with some idea of the work of the great men who stand for it.

It is, however, for money that the immigrant comes, and the American still exists here. They know no better, but art is dying of thirst in a dry desert.
