Erwin Rosenthal’s Contemporary Art in the Light of History, originally published in 1971, is a small masterpiece of writing on the art of the twentieth century. A scholar of medieval art by training and a prominent antiquarian bookseller, Rosenthal, who died in l981, was equally entranced by modern art, particularly abstraction. His three linked essays in this book—“Contemporary Art in the Light of History,” “Art and Technology,” and “Art Theories and Manifestos, Old and New”—set out a path to understanding modern art through its affinities with the art of the past. Rosenthal engages with some of the enduring aesthetic questions: How do new forms and new artistic vocabularies respond to the deepest human needs and impulses? What is the relationship between artistic theory and artistic expression? Nicolas Poussin’s mythological landscapes, Paul Klee’s graphic abstractions, Bridget Riley’s op-art compositions—these and many other examples from centuries of painting, sculpture, poetry, and music take us, in these pages, on a fascinating cultural journey with a sophisticated and lucid guide. Rosenthal’s explorations of the theory and practice of twentieth-century artists bring us directly into the minds and studios of modern artists. What is more, like his previous The Changing Concept of Reality in Art, already republished by Arcade, this book invites us into a great intimacy with the origins of art.

Is there such a thing as contemporary art history? The contemporary-as much as we may want to consider it otherwise-is being made history as it happens. By what means do we examine this moving target? These questions lie at the center of Becoming Past. Focusing on a significant aspect of current art practice, Jane Blocker asks how the creation of the artist implicates and interrogates that of the art historian as she investigates a series of works from art history, theater, performance, and literature. Many books have sought to understand the key directions of contemporary art, but Becoming Past is concerned with the application of art history in the pursuit of such trends.

Many people fall in love with the antique art pieces. In fact, in every artifact, you can find a beautiful meaning that is portrayed in the form of a painting. Basically, modern art was produced during the year 1870 to 1970. There are many artists who love to do modern art. In fact, there are many institutes who offer modern art courses for the interested candidates. The modern artists have refrained using the bygone traditions in painting and did a lot of experiments in producing stupendous paintings that are commendable. They tried different forms of paintings using unique techniques, different materials, and developed new theories on how actually art should portray the world and what all things that an artist have to perceive in order to reflect exactly his thoughts on the painting board. Moreover, during 180 to 1970, there are umpteen art forms were being developed. As per the history, the modern art was observed by a Frenchman called Edouard Manet during the 18th century. But, it was believed that the modern art was started before Frenchman by Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, as the arts drew by these people lack traditional academic art form in between 18 and 19th century. After Pre-Raphaelites, there are different amendments and movements took place in the art world. And, those path breaking movements include Art Nouveau, Cubism, Expressionism, Abstract Expressionism, Dada, Surrealism, and Pop-Art, Orphism, Social Realism, Op-Art, Feminist art, etc. In fact, the modern art also gave birth to a medium called photography that is taking the art world by storm in today’s era. Apart from photography, the other art forms that are developed in the recent times include animation, collage, cinematography, etc. However, modern art has no trend to categorize it, but was developed after cubism in terms of abstract art, i.e. painting and sculpture. In today’s era, modern art is being explored in different forms such as Constructivism, Suprematism, Colour Field, Op-Art, etc. Basically, many of the modern artists will reject the past art as they believe that those arts do not help in the development of new art forms and do not help the new artists in any way. Moreover, industrial revolution gave new ideas for the artists and they are evincing interest in bringing the change in the way they paint the fine arts. Moreover, modern art is considered to be much closer to the modern life over art in the bygone era. In fact, the artists portraying their views about the world is being better represented in modern art over the art in the preceding centuries. There are many different kinds of art styles that are being defined during 1860 to 1960 and it is quite cumbersome for the people to find which art has actually defined the modern art. The key difference between modern artists and the traditionalists is that, self-belief. Basically, art is being valued and appreciated by the people, if it portrays some important values of life.

Comprehensive and insightful, History of Modern Art: Painting, Sculpture, Architecture, Photography is the definitive source of information on the art of the modern era. This Fourth Edition is a freshly retold story of the art and artists of the last 150 years from modernism's mid-nineteenth-century European beginnings to today's divergent art trends. In the decade that has passed since the publication of the previous edition, art historians have come to recognize that works of art, whether sublimely beautiful or provocatively repelling, are artistic responses made by individuals to life in the real world. In her thoughtful reworking of H. H. Arnason's classic text, Marla Prather poses critical questions -- Why did Cubist painters and sculptors refract their subject matter in the way they did? Why did Abstract Expressionism take hold in America? Why did Postmodern architects reject the clean lines of the International Style? What does it mean that artworks of the late 1990s defy categorization? -- and provides insightful and thought-provoking answers. Almost 500 of the nearly 1,500 illustrations are new to this edition, a reflection of Prather's thorough rethinking and updating of the content. The final section of the book presents thirty-seven artists representative of today's decentralized art scene who are working in mediums ranging from conventional painting and photography to video and performance art. With its fully revised bibliography, History of Modern Art, Fourth Edition, is an essential volume for anyone with a curiosity about modern art and culture. Book jacket.

'Conceptual art in the Western world is in crisis.' That is the view of many people who are disillusioned with what they regard as its attention-seeking antics, where artists themselves have proudly proclaimed 'the death of art'. Why has art been on this road to destruction, and how did it get there? How does one make sense of the bewildering complexity of Conceptual art, and how does one extract meaning from its diverse and sometimes bizarre manifestations? This predicament needs explanation, and an exploration of the theoretical underpinnings of modern and contemporary art, and a means to evaluate it. This book starts with a summarised overview of the major art movements since the beginning of the twentieth century, a tracing of the extraordinary journey that art has followed in modern times. The next part considers contemporary art movements, to explore whether they have value, and how that value can be determined. Are the activities that take place in the name of art actually art? Or, as some would have it, is it a gigantic sham, manipulated by clowns to make a trap for fools?To some, it is an outrage that modern and contemporary artists can splash paint around quickly and freely, with a modicum of skill, or assemble a range of found objects, and regard themselves as gifted and creative artists. Others see this as a new, forward-rolling wave, with art at last released from the suffocation and restrictions of the past. The rules have been cast aside. There are fresh ways of exploring and seeing the world, and expressing it freely. The world is constantly changing, and art must change with it. Modern art has followed a long journey. Traditions have been largely cast aside, and replaced with an unceasing search for the new. Our apparent progress is now being questioned. Where do we go from here? Are we on the right road? The second half of this book discusses how we can make sense of contemporary art and assign value to an artwork. Traditional painting and sculpture have physical limits, Conceptual art does not. This is a new freedom - but is it freedom for art, or freedom from art?

A lively introduction to the rich and diverse history of contemporary art over the past 60 years—from Modernism and minimalism to artists like Andy Warhol and Marina Abramović. Accessible and with lavish illustrations, this is the perfect gift for art history fans and anyone looking for a new, more inclusive perspective on ‘the old boys’ club.’ Encountering a work of contemporary art, a viewer might ask, "What does it mean?" "Is it really art?" and "Why does it cost so much?" These are not the questions that E. H. Gombrich set out to answer in his magisterial The Story of Art. Contemporary art seems totally unlike what came before it, departing from the road map supplied by Raphael, Dürer, Rembrandt, and other European masters. In The Story of Contemporary Art, Tony Godfrey picks up where Gombrich left off, offering a lively introduction to contemporary art that stretches from Andy Warhol’s Brillo boxes to Marina Abramović’s performance art to today’s biennale circuit and million-dollar auctions. Godfrey, a curator and writer on contemporary art, chronicles important developments in pop art, minimalism, conceptualism, installation art, performance art, and beyond.

"Contemporary art in the early twenty-first century is often discussed as though it were a radically new phenomenon unmoored from history. Yet all works of art were once contemporary to the artist and culture that produced them. In What Was Contemporary Art? Richard Meyer reclaims the contemporary from historical amnesia, exploring episodes in the study, exhibition, and reception of early twentieth-century art and visual culture.
