Description:
This ambitious project merits our attention even before we delve into its impressively illustrated and persuasively argued pair of volumes. Ingo Walther and his international team have achieved a monumental task in deciphering the tumultuous artistic developments of the past century. It was unimaginable on the eve of 1900 that, a century later, painting and sculpture would become just among the many forms of expression for contemporary artists, who now relentlessly challenge the technical and thematic boundaries of their craft. The visual arts have evolved into a boundless arena for experimentation, reflecting not only the vast potential for human creativity and representation but also how individuals and collectives have navigated the significant social, political, and technological shifts of this chaotic era. Covering the entire range of artistic disciplines, including photography and new media, and organized thematically to underscore connections between works and movements, this comprehensive and accessible tome delivers exactly what its title promises. From Surrealism to Land Art, Fluxus to Bauhaus, this book may well conclude your search for art literature. Be advised: it's unlikely to fit on your coffee table! less
