Paperback. Condizione: Fine. xxx, 241 pages, illustrations (some colour); 22 cm. Tight, clean copy. *** "A critique of works of art dating from the early fifteenth century through to modern installations, Learning to Look at Paintings is an accessible guide to the study and appraisal of paintings, drawings and prints. Mary Acton… shows how one can learn to look at and understand an image by analyzing how it works, what its pictoral elements are and how they relate to each other. She describes the ingredients of composition, space, form, tone and color which make up a painting, and discusses the importance of subject, function and setting in appreciating its visual meanings. Acton also suggests a series of questions to ask when looking at a painting in order to help develop a critical understanding of art. Acton discusses work by a wide range of Western European and American artists, from the fifteenth century to the present. Learning to Look at Paintings is illustrated with over ninety images by artists ranging from Rembrandt, Van Gogh and Botticelli to Picasso, Matisse and Rothko. Also included is a glossary of critical and technical terms used in art history." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Introduction Composition; Space; Form; Tone; Colour; Subject-matter; Drawing and its purposes; Looking at prints; Conclusion : the use of comparison as an aid to looking; Appendix 1. Some questions to ask yourself when standing in front of a painting; Appendix 2. Glossary of some art terms. Size: 8vo.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Embark on an odyssey of visual enlightenment with Mary Acton?s "Learning To Look At Paintings," a title that sounds remarkably straightforward yet promises to unravel the labyrinthine complexities of art appreciation with all the ease of a Sunday stroll through an abstract artist?s back garden. Publi…shed in 2006, this book, courtesy of Routledge, aims to transform you from a mere mortal into a veritable connoisseur of the canvas?though your friends might still regard you with bemusement as you attempt to explain the existential dread of a dot of paint over a blank canvas. Imagine the scene: you, armed with this very tome, striding into a gallery with the confidence of a 19th-century dandy. With a few choice phrases lifted from Acton?s elegant prose, you?ll be able to nod knowingly at the most perplexing of paintings, even if you can hardly tell a Van Gogh from a potato. Whether it?s avant-garde pieces or the traditional landscapes your Aunt Edna painted in her twilight years, you?ll gain the ability to scrutinise every brushstroke with the intensity of a detective scrutinising a crime scene. Just don?t get too carried away; it?s not recommended to start pointing out ?hidden meanings? in your local pub?s dartboard just yet. Within these pages lies a treasure trove of insights, designed to demystify the often esoteric world of art. Will you discover why some people insist that a splash of orange signifies impending doom while others see it as an invitation to brunch? Perhaps you will learn to differentiate between "representational" and "abstract" art, which frankly sounds like the same thing to those of us who can?t even manage to draw a stick figure without invoking laughter from small children. Examine the intricacies of light and shadow?a riveting topic, unless you?ve got a fondness for actual light and shadow. Unravel the mysteries of colour theory, which, despite its scientific title, often leads to arguments about what shade constitutes ?chartreuse.? Explore the significance of various art movements, ensuring you can impress or confuse friends during cocktail parties. Master the art of critique, a skill that could be applied to everything from a Picasso to your mate?s questionable fashion choices. Ultimately learn that the true art is in knowing what you don?t understand, a lesson that could apply to many aspects of life, including but not limited to IKEA assembly instructions. But be warned! This isn?t merely a guide to art appreciation. It is an invitation to plunge into the murky waters of subjective interpretation where the only lifebuoys are your own opinions, and God help you if you forget to bring your unique perspective. Each chapter is a delightful blend of historical context, aesthetic theory, and those delightfully baffling art world terminologies that are sure to leave you both bewildered and eager to attend your next gallery showing. Condition: Used, yet charmingly worn, this copy of "Learning To Look At Paintings" bears the marks of previous voyages into the world of colour and form. The slightly dog-eared pages are a testament to its journey through various coffee tables and bookcases, perhaps paused thoughtfully on a rainy day while someone pondered whether to gaze at the artwork or order takeout instead. You might find coffee stains lurking like hidden treasures, each one a reminder of an artist?s struggle that you can now relate to on a deeply personal level. So, whether you aspire to impress your friends at the next exhibit or simply want to immerse yourself in the language of art without the risk of actual artistic talent, Mary Acton?s "Learning To Look At Paintings" is the book for you. Just remember, at Crappy Old Books, we believe that every pre-loved book has a story worth telling, even if it?s scribbled in the margins by someone who clearly preferred graphic novels. Enjoy the journey through paint and canvas, and may your newfound appreciation be as deep as your coffee cup! THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE.
