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.

Download or read book Ruskin s Principles of Art Criticism Classic Reprint written by Ida M. Street and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ruskin's Principles of Art Criticism Ruskin, though he scorned metaphysical distinction and terms, was in the true sense of the word a philos opher; and it is his philosophy of art that we wish to study in this book. Philosophy is simply clear and connected thinking; philosophy of art, then, is clear and connected thinking about art, and leads to the formulation of laws and principles. Each man, if he thinks about these subjects at all, has, either con sciously or unconsciously, his philosophy of life and of art. The object of the present volume is to put Rus kin's thought on art into such a clear and logical form, that the reader can easily and rapidly compare his own theory with Ruskin's. In this work I wish to appear as an editor rather than as an expositor, although a little exposition has been found absolutely necessary.

Download or read book Criticizing Art written by Terry Barrett and published by WCB/McGraw-Hill. This book was released on 1994 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Criticizing Art: Understanding the Contemporary helps students of art and art history better understand and appreciate contemporary art by studying the principles of art criticism and applying them to contemporary forms of American art. This book provides a framework for critically considering contemporary art through describing, interpreting, evaluating, and theorizing." "The diverse perspectives of contemporary critics such as Douglas Crimp, Arthur Danto, Elizabeth Heartney, Donald Kuspit, Lucy Lippard, Peter Plagens, and Arlene Raven on the work of Leon Golub, Jenny Holzer, Frida Kahlo, Elizabeth Murray, Martin Puryear, William Wegman, and many other artists help readers develop their own critical positions." "Chapter 5, "Theory and Art Criticism," offers clear definitions of modernism, post-modernism, feminism, and multiculturalism, enabling readers to understand the critical milieu in which twentieth century critics have been operating." "An entire chapter (Chapter 6) devoted to writing and talking about contemporary art leads readers through the process of preparing thoughtful, well-constructed critical analyses. Two student papers provide useful examples of the principles discussed throughout the text. Guidelines for constructive group criticism are also included."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

Download or read book On Criticism written by Noel Carroll and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a recent poll of practicing art critics, 75 percent reported that rendering judgments on artworks was the least significant aspect of their job. This is a troubling statistic for philosopher and critic Noel Carroll, who argues that that the proper task of the critic is not simply to describe, or to uncover hidden meanings or agendas, but instead to determine what is of value in art. Carroll argues for a humanistic conception of criticism which focuses on what the artist has achieved by creating or performing the work. Whilst a good critic should not neglect to contextualize and offer interpretations of a work of art, he argues that too much recent criticism has ignored the fundamental role of the artist's intentions. Including examples from visual, performance and literary arts, and the work of contemporary critics, Carroll provides a charming, erudite and persuasive argument that evaluation of art is an indispensable part of the conversation of life.
