Description
The twentieth century has seen great and rapid changes in society and in art. Artists have challenged all the traditional ways of seeing and depicting the world. They have banded together in a bewildering series of movements, or followed individual and sometimes baffling preoccupations.
To write a short introduction to the history of the visual arts in this century could be a formidable task; but Rosemary Lambert, by discussing in non-technical language key works from Cubism to Photo Realism, helps the beginning student or art lover to find a way through the maze. She shares her own enthusiasm and points out many fascinating parallels in painting, sculpture and architecture.
