The Art of Looking: How to Read Modern and Contemporary ArtA veteran art critic helps us make sense of modern and contemporary art The landscape of contemporary art has changed dramatically during the last hundred years: from Malevich's 1915 painting of a single black square and Duchamp's 1917 signed porcelain urinal to Jackson Pollock's midcentury "drip" paintings; Chris Burden's "Shoot" (1971), in which the artist was voluntarily shot in the arm with a rifle; Urs Fischer's "You" (2007), a giant hole dug in
A veteran art critic helps us make sense of modern and contemporary art The landscape of contemporary art has changed dramatically during the last hundred years: from Malevich's 1915 painting of a single black square and Duchamp's 1917 signed porcelain urinal to Jackson Pollock's midcentury "drip" paintings; Chris Burden's "Shoot" (1971), in which the artist was voluntarily shot in the arm with a rifle; Urs Fischer's "You" (2007), a giant hole dug in the floor of a New York gallery; and the conceptual and performance art of today's Ai Weiwei and Marina Abramovic. The shifts have left the art-viewing public (understandably) perplexed. In The Art of Looking, renowned art critic Lance Esplund demonstrates that works of modern and contemporary art are not as indecipherable as they might seem. With patience, insight, and wit, Esplund guides us through the last century of art and empowers us to approach and appreciate it with new eyes. Eager to democratize genres that can feel inaccessible, Esplund encourages viewers to trust their own taste, guts, and common sense. The Art of Looking will open the eyes of viewers who think that recent art is obtuse, nonsensical, and irrelevant, as well as the eyes of those who believe that the art of the past has nothing to say to our present.Binding Type: Hardcover

Lovely purse.
Color: Leopard, Color: Leopard
I was so pleased when I received this purse! It also has a Gold shoulder chain inside. I had previously ordered some shoes of this print. It was a perfect match! If you wear leopard prints, you understand. That was just lucky! AND I found a corsage! All from Amazon.

Pleasantly surprised - much better than price would indicate
Color: Nude
Needed a nude clutch to go with a deep aubergine dress i am planning to wear to a wedding. I did not want to spend too much as I'll only use it 1-2 times a year. I am pleased with the look and heft of the bag, and especially the chain; thank God there's a chain. This purse does not look cheap in any way. It will fit my phone, tissues, lipstick, change purse, and credit card/license. Other clutches were too small or too big, but this hits the sweet spot. I ordered additional colors (navy and black). Also - because its a flap closure, there is no clasp that could break or look chinsy

Stylish & Functional
Size: 70" x 48", Style: Starter Wall
The Stand Up Desk Store Expanse Modular Wall is a fantastic addition to my workspace. The frosted acrylic panels provide privacy without blocking light, and the sound-absorbent panels really help reduce noise. It’s easy to assemble, looks great with the sleek silver frame, and the modular design makes it super versatile. Great quality and value—highly recommended!

Does the job
Size: 53" x 48", Style: Starter Wall
Decent look, basic unit. Wasn’t the easiest build, I had to trim panels to get a good fit. Great price, but quality matches that point.
