"Drawing" presents its subject as an independent, major, art form -- one of the oldest mods of artistic expression, rediscovered in our generation as a delight for connoisseurs and as an exciting discipline for practicing artists. With 330 reproductions of the finest examples, in black and white and full color, to illustrate his text, Professor Mendelowitz examines those special characteristics that make a "drawing," and analyzes an immense range of master drawings both within the context of their historical development and in relation to the elements and principles of line, value, form, texture, and media. In a final chapter the author presents a unique and altogether challenging inquiry into the role the imagination plays in catalyzing the appreciation of drawing and expression in this form. -- From publisher's description No library descriptions found. |
