How Art is Made: The Craft Behind the Masterpieces
How Art Is Made looks at famous works of art from across the centuries and around the world and asks an intriguingly simple question: how were these works actually made?
Divided into two sections ( materials and methods ), each chapter showcases a single work of art that demonstrates the mastery and innovative use of a single material or method, from oil paint, pastel and pencil to woodcut, lithography and impasto. Each work is presented as the centrepiece of an abridged history, while comparative works are also included to help broaden our understanding.
How, for example, did Michelangelo paint the fresco in the Sistine Chapel, or how did Turner become a master of watercolour, how did Warhol so effectively use silkscreen, and how does Yayoi Kusama create such captivating 'infinity rooms'? The book enhances the experience of looking at great works of art and guides us to a deeper understanding of how they were created and why we consider them so important.
