Folk Art In America

Author: Adele Earnest
Pages: 192

Item #: BK376
Price: $35.00
This book reveals the story of the roots of America's passion for art that is uniquely its own. Adele Earnest acquaints the reader with the history of the folk art movement, with folk artists and their masterpieces, and the founding of the Museum of American Folk Art. Earnest also reminisces about the early collectors who blazed place for folk art in the art world: Henry Francis duPont, Titus Geesey, Mme. Gamma Walska, to name a few. Her narrative blends anecdote with history as she recounts triumphs and tragedies of the art, the feature exhibits to be admired, and the exhilaration of finding a new piece.
