Covering everything from Impressionism to the Harlem Renaissance, from Cezanne to Post modernism in clearly laid-out sections illustrated in full color, this book answers the need for a thorough yet manageable guide to art in the modern world. With the authority of the world's most popular gallery of modern art, combined with clear text and superb illustrations, this book presents everything you need for a basic grounding in the subject. With sections that cover the major movements and artists in the history of modern art as well as introductions to its major themes, together with suggested ways of looking at modern art and tips on where to see it - as well as a glossary of key terms - "How to Survive Modern Art" is the ideal book for anyone wanting to get to grips with this fascinating subject.
