4.9/5 (32365 ratings)

Description:An incisive exploration of the still life genre as artists have rediscovered and reshaped it in the 20th century, "Objects of Desire" proves that despite the century's hostility toward older aesthetic conventions, avant-garde artists of many schools have made of the still life a vital opportunity for invention. From Matisse, Picasso, and Braque to the Dadaists, Surrealists, and Pop artists and finally to contemporary creators like Cindy Sherman and Charles Ray, the still life has hardly led a stolid, stable, or staunch existence. Originally a subject reserved for painting, the genre has progressively invaded the arena of sculpture, its themes reinvented in the provocative assemblages called "readymades," its forms recast continuously into the present. Published to accompany a major 1997 exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, "Objects of Desire" traces a radical rethinking of the genre in terms of subject matter and formal invention.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
