Intended Audience: Trade Publisher: Princeton Tec University Art Museum Topic: American / African American, Criticism & Theory, General, Native American Language: English brand: Princeton Tec University Art Museum Author: Ellery E. Foutch Book Title: Object Lessons in American Art Synopsis: A rich exploration of American artworks that reframes them within current debates on race, gender, the environment, and more Object Lessons in American Art explores a diverse gathering of Euro-American, Native American, and African American art from a range of contemporary perspectives, illustrating how innovative analysis of historical art can inform, enhance, and afford new relevance to artifacts of the American past. The book is grounded in the understanding that the meanings of objects change over time, in different contexts, and as a consequence of the ways in which they are considered. Inspired by the concept of the object lesson, the study of a material thing or group of things in juxtaposition to convey embodied and underlying ideas, Object Lessons in American Art examines a broad range of art from Princeton University's venerable collections as well as contemporary works that imaginatively appropriate and reframe their subjects and style, situating them within current social, cultural, and artistic debates on race, gender, the environment, and more.

It's profound and heady stuff, but incredibly insightful if one can parse through it. . . . Object Lessons starts to fill in some deep and gaping holes for underrepresented voices in American art history." ---Cindy Helms, New York Journal of Books LCCN: 2022-921273 Number of Pages: 200 Pages Item Length: 10.5 in
