Contemporary Art

Series I - Lara-Vinca Masini
A complete and detailed view of contemporary art, a work of unique synthesis, destined to narrate the people of the XXI century the view of our artistic expressions.
The authors critical and studious notes on modern and contemporary art has been characterised by an unorthodox route of research. The novelty of the methodological approach allows us to read the artistic behaviour of our century in these two volumes, the ":line of the oneness,": that is, that of the spontaneous creativeness, immediate, entrusted to the gesture. The themes are the movements, the artistic displays, the architectural events and plastics that they represent: from the historical Expressionism to The Blue Reiter, to the Informal, to Fluxus, to the New Dada, from pop to Body Art, to the poor Art, up to the new demonstrations of sculpture; and from the futurist architecture to the organic architecture to the New Brutalism, up to the architectural utopia and the lines of the ":International Radical.":
Volume I 584 Pages, Volume II 684 Pages. Both volumes bound with a coloured dust jacket, sized 22.3 x 26.5cm.
Series II - Lara-Vinca Masini
Contemporary Art from around the world.
Two volumes that complete the major work on Contemporary Art
The volumes are designed for all who take an interest in contemporary art as an understanding of the expression of our time: it is an essential addition to the art libraries of collectors, galleries, superior schools of artistic education, high schools and academies, Universities (History of Art and Architecture), libraries of museums and art galleries.
After the first two volumes in this series on Contemporary Art, these two new imposing volumes complete the history of the art from the historical vanguards to today: a complete and detailed view of contemporary art, and also a work of unique synthesis. While the first series of works institutionalised the art in examination, as direct and immediate creativeness, from the historical Expressionism to the organic architecture, these new volumes examine contemporary art like a plan, like a ":model": for a world organised according to reason: from Cubism to De Stijl, to the Bauhaus up to conceptualism, to post-modern art and architecture.
Volume I has 448 pages and Volume II 486 pages; with more than 3,000 illustrations in colour. The volumes come with a coloured dust jacket and a colored slip cover and are sized 23 x 27.2cm.
