Objects of American Art Education: Highlights from the Diana Korzenik Collection
Автор:Diana Korzenik Год: 2005 Издание: [не указанo] Страниц: 48 ISBN: 0873282043 Book DescriptionObjects of American Art Education explores the array of interests that inspired Diana Korzenik to form a collection of art-teaching materials dating from 1770 to 1950-the richest and most extensive archive of its kind. In the course of gathering these materials Korzenik traced the methods and materials used to teach artists and amateurs to draw and to see the world around them. The illustrations featured in the book provide an extensive sampling of these materials, depicting drawing books, cards, and three-dimensional teaching aids. The essays provide evidence of the changing interpretations of art making in the period covered by the collection and offer new perspectives on material culture, art and design, education, and American studies.
