Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature and development of art as a skill and a field of study through essays, many of which were originally delivered as lectures to artists and students. The essays delve into topics like the difference between photography and painting, and the relationship between art and society. The author, a respected artist and critic, argues that art is not merely a hobby or a collection of pretty things; rather, it is a skill that requires dedicated study and practice, and that it has a profound impact on society. The book is a valuable resource for artists, art students, and anyone interested in the role of art in our lives. It challenges conventional ways of thinking about art, and provides a new perspective on the significance and value of art in society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330247686_0

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the role and experience of artists in society from a unique insider's perspective. The author, an artist themselves, examines the history of how artists have been perceived, from the time of ancient Greece to modern day. The author shares many examples from the careers of notable greats in art history like Turner and Phidias. The author argues that society's perception of artists as unimportant and powerless has kept many great artists from sharing their gifts with the world. This book posits that artists hold a critical position in society, using their voice to contribute to culture and human understanding. It is a must -read for any artist, art enthusiast, or anyone interested in the complex relationship between art and society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332586868_0
