Arts & humanities

摘要

Since the first edition of Arnason's survey was published more than four decades ago, this has been considered the book on modern art. Newly revised and expanded by Mansfield (art history, New York Univ.; Too Beautiful To Picture: Zeuxis, Myth, and Mimesis), it should still be considered as such. The images are more numerous and of higher quality than ever before. Contemporary art is presented thematically rather than by decade, and various media are integrated.
