A Concise History of Modern Sculpture (World of Art S.)
Low stock: 1 left
Drawing on the knowledge of a lifetime of study, and the understanding of one who himself participated in the creative adventure of modern art, the late Sir Herbert Read traces the development of modern sculpture from Rodin to the present day and brings order into the apparently chaotic proliferation of styles and techniques during this period. 339 illus., 49 in color.
"His ability to survey the accomplishments of the art since Rodin...is unsurpassed...This history is necessary reading for all who are interested in the art of our own day." --Studio International
"Straightforward, intelligent approach to a complex subject." --The Economist
"Enviable brevity and sympathy." --The Observer
"Compactly written, profusely illustrated survey of the modern movement which is distinguished by the knowledge, sincerity and deeply felt convictions of the author." --British Book News
