An Inspiring Photo-Biography
Christopher Beane's new book, Flower, is a floral autobiography. Beginning with traditional, abstract, black & white compositions in the 1990s, Beane's early works make reference to a number of noted photographers but also reveal how he developed his own eye for presenting unusual floral shapes and textures. In the late 1990s, Beane left the b&w world behind and dove head-first into vibrant ...

Everything you need to know...
I needed to find a few good sources for an art history report and was lucky enough to pluck this book off the shelf at my local library. I ended up finding most everything I needed just in this book and was amazed at the detailed coverage of the history of each induvidual peice. I loved it so much that I bought it for myself, and it has probably been the best purchase I've ever made. The ...

The Continuously Evolving Benchmark
As a student of History during my university days I inevitably came into contact with Janson's benchmark book. I certainly have not been alone in that regard. As with many books in my home library I seek out different editions of many titles. Trends, new revelations and often time re-examination of works come to fruition and result in a new edition being published. Art seems to have branched out ...

Great book!
I bought this book....AND IT WAS WONDERFUL! It explains without lecturing about the whole history of art...THAT'S RIGHT, THE WHOLE HISTORY OF ART, in this one book. While it doesn't go into tens of pages of detail about art periods and artists, it provides more than enough info about eveything in art. This book is a definite recommendation for those who want to appear very art savvy. It ...

Everything but the kitchen sink--and it might be a found object!
"Janson's History of Art" contains a comprehensive story of the human effort to communicate in an aesthetic manner. Art is the communication of imagination and ideas. It is an effort at adorning self and environment. It is the expression of man's reality, whether realistic or symbolic. H.W. Janson and his successors show us this unfolding story in this 824 page volume. When I taught art ...
