Modern Art by Meyer Schapiro
A rich diversity of writing can be found within this collection, which offers studies of individual artists (C zanne, Picasso, Mondrian, and Seurat) as well as essays on the reception and social meanings of modern art. Yet, even in his most aesthetic analyses, Schapiro never lost sight of the heroic efforts of the individual artists and of the cultural contexts in which their works were made and received.
Modern Art won the National Book Critics Circle Award (1978) and the Mitchell Prize for Art History (1979) and was a nominee for a National Book Award (1979).
Schapiro, Meyer: - Meyer Schapiro (1904-1996) was a prolific art historian, critic, and teacher. His notable titles include Modern Art, Romanesque Art, The Unity of Picasso's Art, and Theory and Philosophy of Art.
