Williams College, in Williamstown, MA, has collected art since the mid-19th century. In this chronological journey through American art in all media, each of 56 highlighted objects from the museum receives a mini-essay of several hundred words, signed by contributors who frequently are the acknowledged experts on particular artists or works. A full factual entry on each work appears at the back of the book, preceded by extremely brief summaries of the acquisitions histories of the overall collection's painting, drawing, sculpture, Williams portraits, prints, photographs, posters, and decorative arts. College alumni donated many items, including collections on Rube Goldberg, Thomas Nast, and the Prendergasts. This is not the definitive book on American art, but it is an excellent survey with many interesting objects not commonly reproduced. For art history collections. 64 colour & 65 b/w illustrations
The iconic American pick up truck depicted through the sculpture, painting, and printwork of American artist John Himmelfarb.
"Fred Holly, the oldest of four children, begins his senior year in high school while he works part-time at the local Omaha art museum, a place where he can get lost for hours in the beauty before him. At the museum, Fred escapes his father's worries about the Vietnam War, the draft, and the changes that are roiling America. As fall progresses, James Day, Fred's best friend, begins spending most of his time with his male debate coach and Fred can't help but feel the strange pangs of jealousy. Soon thereafter, Charlotte, Fred's precocious eleven-year-old sister, is admitted to the hospital with kidney problems. As Charlotte's condition worsens and the likelihood of her coming home decreases, the Hollys lives descend into sadness. And only their dreams can hope to inspire their days."--BOOK JACKET.
