A unique feature, the Gateways to Art, uses eight iconic images, examined repeatedly from different points of view (compositional, stylistic, etc.), to stimulate perceptions about how great works are created and take their effect. No other book currently available has such a wide coverage, provided in a modular form that enables students and teachers to learn or teach in a truly flexible way. Beautifully illustrated with more than 1,000 images of art, this dynamic and accessible book will appeal as much to the art enthusiast as to those looking for an outstanding educational resource.  2Art 2ddccBK01 c3576d3576 00102ddc40708NFICaMAINbMAINcCARTd2018-01-05ePurchased g4986.42l1o700 DEWpB0043422r2022-08-25 00:00:00s2022-08-12w2018-01-05yBK
