Description

This work explores the emergence of the United States as a major force in the international art world during the twentieth century. This wonderful new series (with over 10 titles in print) aims to combine a compact, commercial approach with the breadth and clarity of larger format books. Covering art which both creates the foundation of modern culture and modern art itself, the books include Picasso, Bauhous, and the Art Nouveau movement.
