Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Throughout the previous seven editions, this text has earned a reputation for elegance and the highest standards of quality. Living with Art helps students develop an appreciation of art by offering a clear and comprehensive introduction to the visual arts from several perspectives: themes and purposes of art; the vocabulary of art; individual art media (painting, drawing, camera arts, sculpture, architecture, etc.); and the history of art. The book is rich with illustrations drawn from a wide range of artistic cultures and time periods. About the AuthorMark Getlein arrived in New York to pursue advanced music studies at the Juilliard School, but he quickly became equally fascinated by the citys vibrant downtown art scene and magnificent museum collections. For a decade or so he led an interesting but precarious life as a pianist and painter. As a writer and development editor, he has helped to create a series of ground-breaking college textbooks in art and literature, including Art History (Abrams, 1995), A History of Art in Africa (Abrams, 2001), The HarperCollins World Reader, The Longman Anthology of British Literature, and The Longman Anthology of World Literature. This is his third edition as author of Living with Art. Table of ContentsPreface1. Living with Art3. Themes of Art4. The Visual ElementsPART THREE: TWO-DIMENSIONAL MEDIA7. Painting9.
