More about the book
History of Modern Art has long been recognized as the authoritative, encyclopedic history of painting, photography, sculpture, and architecture from the mid-19th century, when modern art emerged, to the present day. Revising author Marla F. Prather's contributions to the new Fourth Edition include: -- More biographical information about each artist. -- An entirely new chapter on Cubism. -- A lively sense of social and historical context. -- Coverage of work in nontraditional mediums. such as video, installation, and performance art. -- More than 30% new illustrations and text and nearly twice the number of color illustration as in previous editions. -- A culturally diverse selection of artists and a much broader selection of works by women. -- Chronological reorganization of the text, an updated bibliography, and a complete index.
