Tells how to plan a museum visit, gives advice on appreciating paintings, sculptures, and museum buildings themselves, and discusses special shows, permanent collections, and different types of museums.
Originally published by Simon and Schuster in 1969, this fine work is based on the personal and professional knowledge of 'corporate oligarchs' of the author, the Chairman of the Board of Ruder, Finn, & Rotman. It presents a candid picture of the corporate oligarch's relation to money, to power, to nepotism, to dreams of dynastic power, to his critics, to politics, to burnishing his own image and that of his company. These are the men who are said to run America, and this is an informed and sometimes suprising report on what runs them.
It is my hope that through this book I can share with readers the excitement I feel in looking at sculpture all over the world. This is a general book on how to appreciate sculpture, not a lesson on any particular period or school or artist.
