I can't emphasize how much I learned from this book and how interesting it was. I have read several children's books on Frida Kahlo and this one is the best. I'm hoping to read the books in the series about other artists too. Very, very good.             Renoir (Artistas Serie Menor)4 reviews Peter H. Feist Numen, 2003 Geniuses' full color reproductions. I'm in love with The Impressionists in general and with Auguste Renoir in particular. His palette is full of light; soft pink, greens and blues are a joy to watch time and again. As most Impressionists Renoir paint wonderful every day scenes, mainly outside as his magnificent: "The Luncheon of the Boating Party" (1881), "The Swing" (1876) and "Le Moulin de la Galette" (1876), whose careful ...             Mark Chagall: 1887-1985 (Artistas Serie Mayor)2 reviews Ingo F. Walther Numen, 2004 The happy painter of images! His muse was Bella. He celebrated every anniversary of his wedding with a picture in which he and her appeared. "The inner world is perhaps, more real than the visible world.", affirmed once. Almost all his work have consisted in love pictures, sinuous fantasies that seemed to disorient the spectator, where birds, quadrupeds and fishes join to a Ode to Joy. His chosen colors acquire ...             Cezanne (Artistas Serie Mayor)1 review Hajo Duchting Numen, 2004 Cezanne is the father of all of us! This heart felt statement belongs to Henri Matisse. If a painter wishes to see the beauty that enraptures him, he counts with the power to create it. If he wishes to see the grotesque, the laughable, or the pathetic, he will be about those issues schoolmistress and master. All what it exists in the universe, in essence or in imagination, is before all matter of his mind and then of his hand. ...             Caravaggio: 1571-1610 (Artistas Serie Menor)1 review Gilles Lambert, Gilles Neret, ... Numen, 2003 CARAVAGGIO Notorious bad boy of Italian Baroque painting, Caravaggio (1571-1610) is finally getting the recognition he deserves. Though his name may be familiar to all of us, his work has been habitually detested and forced into obscurity. Not only was his theatrical realism unfashionable in his time, but his sacrilegious subject matter and use of lower class models were violently scorned. Caravaggio's ...             Bill Evans: Ritratto D'Artista Con Pianoforte = the Pianist as an Artist1 review Enrico Pieranunzi Stampa alternativa, 2001 A Different View of Bill Evans' music This book, written by Italian jazz pianist, Enrico Pieranunzi, is very interesting and enlightening. He divides the book by tunes that Bill wrote and discusses things that were happening in Bill's life that may have contributed to the various compositions. Enrico shows a sensitivity to Bill's music and life and speaks knowledgably about the melodies, harmonies, style, etc. of Bill Evans. ...             El Camino Del Artista En Accion1 review Mark Bryan, Catherine Allen, ... Troquel Editorial, 2001 aumenta tu creatividad Con este libro que puedes seguir paso a paso, te enseña la manera de adentrar en tu interior y aumentar tu creatividad. Además para los artistas es una buena ayuda para despertar el aspecto monetario en nuestro trabajo diario.             Van Gogh: 1835-1890 (Spanish edition)2 reviews Rainer Metzger, Ingo F. Walther Numen, 2003 A novice liked it I spotted this book and, having been impressed by the Van Gogh exhibit at the National Gallery last year, decided to check it out. (That being said, I know very little about art and seldom read about it, so this review should be taken in that light.) Van Gogh was an amazingly prolific painter. His artistic career lasted scarcely ten years, but in that time he created enough paintings to ...             Puerto Rico arte e identidad / Puerto Rico Art & Identity2 reviews Hermandad de artistas graficos de Puerto Rico University of Puerto Rico Press, 2004 Unique in its class This book presents in both spanish and english an excellent review of Puertorican art.

This is an extraordinary book for every Chagall fan. The quality of illustrations is just wonderful, and if you had only one book to buy on Chagall, this is the one! Don't worry, its not heavy at all; in fact, I would have added more and more pages of never-been-seen work of this incredible artist. The illustrations are colorful, vivid and beautiful, and the biography is very well written and ...             Latin American Women Artists / Artistas Latinoamericanas: 1915-19951 review Geraldine P. Biller, Edward J. Sullivan, ... Milwaukee Art Museum, 1995 Excellent resource on Latin American Woman Artists "Catalog of the exhibit (Latin American Women Artists: 1915-1995) ... organized by the Milwaukee Art Museum. Pâerez de Mendiola provides perhaps the best and most enlightening text... Illustrated in b/w and color.

Really, really strong dialogue. My favorite character is Ray, the angry, hostile, border-patrolman, trapped in this excellent drama of gunplay and misguided passions. An excellent read -- ...             Salvador Dali (Los artistas en su mundo series)3 reviews Robert Anderson, Anna Maria Guasch Ferrer Blume, 2006 Elementary age Art history teacher This book was so helpful in trying to teach children about Dali.
