The Path to Art in Three Books
Step 1. Getting interest in the art.
You are a beginner. You don’t know anything about art. You have never been interested in it at all. If this all is true, this book will inspire your interest in art and its history. The majority of people wouldn’t be interested in art by learning dry encyclopedic knowledge. It won’t affect the person or awake the desire to study this further. But in this book, the author attracts readers by telling interesting facts about the life of artists, funny cases, and stories that happened to the artist or the picture. Thanks to the accessible language of presentation, the book is easy to read and assimilate, captivating the audience into the world of art. That’s why this book can be a perfect introduction to the topic.
Step 2. Understanding the art.
This book is most suitable for those who have some knowledge in this area but still struggle. Most of the time, the public can not understand the beauty of the paintings of Kandinsky or Malevich, but the ones who can admit that "there is something in it after all", probably would like the book of Will Gompertz. It may help you to understand and sort everything out. After reading it, you can, at least, trace the entire history of the development of modern art, the continuity of styles, and the logic of their changes. It is an extraordinary book, full of tales and anecdotes. “What Are You Looking At?” entertains readers and gives them the knowledge to truly understand and enjoy what they’re looking at.
Step 3. Researching the art.
This book is a concise and informative encyclopedia of the entire history of art. This book is for those who at least understand the art just a little and are already interested in its history. Every 1-2 pages of the book are devoted to each style, technique, or particular picture. This is a brief summary of key periods, concepts, artists, and styles with major historical figures. This book is especially good for broadening your mind. You may expand your already acquired knowledge of contemporary art and supplement your knowledge of the Renaissance, Rococo, and other interesting periods of art history. The title of the book effectively expresses its content. All the main information. Briefly. Clearly. Informatively.
