An unparalleled overview of the most influential American artists from colonial times to the present, in an accessible A to Z format.
Presents 500 artists and their works, from Puritan portraits to the Hudson River School and the American Impressionists, to the videos and digital works of today's Conceptual artists.
Each artist is represented by a full-page colour plate and a descriptive text that explains the image and introduces its creator.
Like the enormously successful "Art Book", this survey departs from the usual emphasis on genres and time periods.
Includes a glossary of artistic terms and movements, and a directory of public collections across the United States and around the world with important holdings in American art.
Compact mini format presents all the same material in a handy size.
