Overview

"Now that ""ArtSpeak: A Guide to Contemporary Ideas, Movements and Buzzwords"" has demystified post-war art, ""ArtSpoke"" is intented to clarify international art terms from Realism through Surrealism. ""ArtSpoke"" features the same user-friendly layout in dictionary form as ArtSpeak. It provides a valuable guide to the first century of modern art and explains such popular but often misunderstood movements, styles, and groupings as the Pre-Raphaelites, Impressionism, Neo-Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, symbolism, Scuola Metafisica, Neue Sachlichkeit, Vorticism and so on. Concise definitions of potentially perplexing concepts and techniques such as ""allegory"", ""androgyny"", ""calotype"", ""femme fatale"", ""found object"", ""primitivism"", ""spiritualism"", and so on distinguish this guide. The book includes an ArtChart - a one page chart of the chronological relationships among the various movements; as well as a timeline of world history and art history (1848-1945) with 24 colour illustrations and suggestions for further reading."
