The book is a series of essays each one taking a slightly different perspective on life as art. Although the material is substantive it reads smoothly and with a gentle ease often lost in this type of philosophical art critic. The content was entertaining and could lead to an extended lunch in order to complete the last few pages of a chapter. But in the end the overall book was not memorable. I can recall to you high level themes; art of collecting, simple pleasures or the art of making a world, but int he end the imprint this book made on me was shallow. Is was an entertaining but not a life changing read. http://nicolevlozano.blogspot.com/2008/01/recent-read.html ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
The chief art critic for The New York Times writes on the creative impulse that emerges in all of us when we realize that the art of making art starts with the art of living. This wide-ranging book explores art as life's great passion, revealing what we can learn of life through works of art and the people who make them. It assures us that art--points of contact with the exceptional that are linked straight to the heart--can be found almost anywhere if only our eyes are opened enough to recognize it. Kimmelman regards art, like all serious human endeavors, as a passage through which a larger view of life may come more clearly into focus. His book carries the message that many of us may not yet have learned how to recognize the art in our own lives.--From publisher description. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
