Mystery unravelled!!

Not knowing nor understanding anything about "modern art", this delightful text and examples illustrated, gave me a new insight and respectful understanding of the artists grouped in the "modern" era. The authors skillfully organized the evolution from the"emoting expressioinist, confusing cubists, daring dadaists, super surrealists, awesome abstractionists" etc. chapters. This book is a MUST for everyone wishing to maximize their enjoyment of modern art. Read about Picasso, Miro, Kandinski, Pollack and many,many more!
