Lines & Myths: Abstraction in American Art, 1941-1951


Title Lines & Myths: Abstraction in American Art, 1941-1951 
Call Number N6512.5.A2 L75 1992  
Location 2nd Floor Fine Art
Rating Not Recommended
Book Review The book highlights the work of abstract artists who are not as commonly associated with the movement. It presents the art with only an introductory statement, allowing the readers to get a feel for the styles associated with the time period. I felt as if the author could have written a bit more or contextualize the artists. Somewhat interesting, but due to lack of analysis it felt a little of a waste.
