Synopsis Painting the Spirit of Nature by : Maxine Masterfield
Whether you are painting the spirit of nature -- or painting nature with a free spirit -- the keynote of this book is experimentation & keeping an open mind. Painting a scene exactly as it appears to the eye, as a realist landscape artist does, is only one of the many ways to capture nature. Masterfield demonstrates basic techniques for achieving texture, color mixtures, & shapes. Shows you new ways to work in watercolor -- by pouring inks, adding opaque lines to textured passages, using crinkled wax paper as resists -- & describes ways to collage several paintings together into an exciting work of art. Color & B&W illustrations.

Synopsis Strange Tools by : Alva Noë
A philosopher makes the case for thinking of works of art as tools for investigating ourselves In his new book, Strange Tools: Art and Human Nature, the philosopher and cognitive scientist Alva Noë raises a number of profound questions: What is art? Why do we value art as we do? What does art reveal about our nature? Drawing on philosophy, art history, and cognitive science, and making provocative use of examples from all three of these fields, Noë offers new answers to such questions. He also shows why recent efforts to frame questions about art in terms of neuroscience and evolutionary biology alone have been and will continue to be unsuccessful.

Synopsis Nature and Culture : American Landscape and Painting, 1825-1875, With a New Preface by : Barbara Novak Altschul Professor of Art History Barnard College and Columbia University (Emerita)
In this richly illustrated volume, featuring more than fifty black-and-white illustrations and a beautiful eight-page color insert, Barbara Novak describes how for fifty extraordinary years, American society drew from the idea of Nature its most cherished ideals. Between 1825 and 1875, all kinds of Americans--artists, writers, scientists, as well as everyday citizens--believed that God in Nature could resolve human contradictions, and that nature itself confirmed the American destiny. Using diaries and letters of the artists as well as quotes from literary texts, journals, and periodicals, Novak illuminates the range of ideas projected onto the American landscape by painters such as Thomas Cole, Albert Bierstadt, Frederic Edwin Church, Asher B. Durand, Fitz H. Lane, and Martin J. Heade, and writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Frederich Wilhelm von Schelling. Now with a new preface, this spectacular volume captures a vast cultural panorama. It beautifully demonstrates how the idea of nature served, not only as a vehicle for artistic creation, but as its ideal form. "An impressive achievement." --Barbara Rose, The New York Times Book Review "An admirable blend of ambition, elan, and hard research. Not just an art book, it bears on some of the deepest fantasies of American culture as a whole." --Robert Hughes, Time Magazine
