FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 445 pages 787 illus. small 4to. -- with a bonus offer--; Neither a conventional history of the city nor simply a collection of illustrations and photographs this ground-breaking work weaves together diverse historical works -from political and economic analyses to ethnic and gender studies -with visual evidence from each period. Through almost 800 images Cityscapes tells the story of the city from its origins in the early seventeenth century through the end of the twentieth century. In lithographs paintings drawings and broadsides New York is portrayed as rising from a small Dutch outpost to a republican seaport whose life was framed by the American Revolution. The visual evidence changes to etchings photographs and lithographs as Cityscapes depicts a mid-nineteenth-century city torn by dislocations caused by a multiethnic society amid the turmoil of the industrial revolution. Documenting the turn of the last century a wealth of photographs shows the new five-borough metropolis taking in waves of immigrants and portrays the evolution of the immigrant metropolis into the cosmopolitan city of mid-century. In its final chapter Cityscapes looks at the global village and takes stock of New York´s role as the world economic and artistic capital of the late twentieth century. This lavish volume shows how New York produced contemporary understandings of what makes a city from a distinctive skyline to a democratic street grid to diverse ethnic neighborhoods. From the depths of poverty to the heights of conspicuous consumption images of New York illustrate how we comprehend the urban past and imagine its future. . 2001. 0231106246 .

2010réf. 88172Museum. New. Paperback. FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 80 pages; 37 color illustrations. -- with a bonus offer--; Northwest landscape painter Victoria Adams is equally committed to the landscape tradition and the creation of exquisite scenes that address the contemporary desire for the sublime. Adams depicts idealized landscapes that evoke virgin terrain untouched by human intervention and devoid of degradation. Through her reworking of landscape traditions and conventions her paintings reveal the inextricable connections between beauty and the sublime and melancholia. Her paintings evoke the deep desire for the perfect moment and heighten awareness of the psychological impact of the idealized landscape. Adams presents the landscape as a solitary experience with the immense and infinite sublime-a magnificent solitude. Where Earth Meets Sky is the first museum survey exhibition of Victoria Adam's work and is part of the Tacoma Art Museum's Northwest Perspective Series. Adams' work is held in private and museum collections throughout the United States. Rock Hushka is Tacoma Art Museum's curator of contemporary and Northwest art. . 2010. 0924335300 . Museum paperback
