Reseña del libro "Modern American Painters (en Inglés)"
""Modern American Painters"" is a comprehensive book written by Samuel Melvin Kootz, which explores the works of some of the most influential American painters of the 20th century. The book is divided into sections, each dedicated to a particular artist or a group of artists who share a similar style or philosophy. The artists covered in the book include Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, Willem de Kooning, Franz Kline, and many others who were part of the Abstract Expressionist movement that dominated the American art scene in the mid-20th century. Kootz provides an in-depth analysis of each artist's style, technique, and artistic philosophy, and traces the evolution of their work over time. He also discusses the historical and cultural context in which these artists worked, including the impact of World War II, the rise of consumerism, and the changing attitudes towards art in post-war America. The book is richly illustrated with full-color reproductions of the artists' most important works, providing readers with a visual understanding of their artistic vision. The writing style is accessible and engaging, making it an excellent resource for both art enthusiasts and students of art history.
