Book Of Arms and Artists

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paul Staiti
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing USA
  • Release : 2016-10-18
  • ISBN : 1632864673
  • Pages : 546 pages

Download or read book Of Arms and Artists written by Paul Staiti and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vibrant and original perspective on the American Revolution through the stories of the five great artists whose paintings animated the new American republic. The images accompanying the founding of the United States--of honored Founders, dramatic battle scenes, and seminal moments--gave visual shape to Revolutionary events and symbolized an entirely new concept of leadership and government. Since then they have endured as indispensable icons, serving as historical documents and timeless reminders of the nation's unprecedented beginnings. As Paul Staiti reveals in Of Arms and Artists, the lives of the five great American artists of the Revolutionary period--Charles Willson Peale, John Singleton Copley, John Trumbull, Benjamin West, and Gilbert Stuart--were every bit as eventful as those of the Founders with whom they continually interacted, and their works contributed mightily to America's founding spirit. Living in a time of breathtaking change, each in his own way came to grips with the history they were living through by turning to brushes and canvases, the results often eliciting awe and praise, and sometimes scorn. Their imagery has connected Americans to 1776, allowing us to interpret and reinterpret the nation's beginning generation after generation. The collective stories of these five artists open a fresh window on the Revolutionary era, making more human the figures we have long honored as our Founders, and deepening our understanding of the whirlwind out of which the United States emerged.

Book Art as Art

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ad Reinhardt
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 1991-06-06
  • ISBN : 9780520076709
  • Pages : 262 pages

Download or read book Art as Art written by Ad Reinhardt and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1991-06-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ad Reinhardt is probably best known for his black paintings, which aroused as much controversy as admiration in the American art world when they were first exhibited in the 1950s. Although his ideas about art and life were often at odds with those of his contemporaries, they prefigured the ascendance of minimalism. Reinhardt's interest in the Orient and in religion, his strong convictions about the value of abstraction, and his disgust with the commercialism of the art world are as fresh and valid today as they were when he first expressed them.
