Stepping away from biography, style, and the chronology of \"isms\" that preoccupies most of art history, \u003cem\u003eA New Way of Seeing\u003c\/em\u003e invites interaction with art, learning from the artworks and not just about them. Grovier identifies that part of the artwork that bridges the divide between art and life and elevates its value beyond the visual to the vital. This book challenges the sensibility that conceives of artists as brands and the works they create as nothing more than material commodities to hoard, hide, and flip for profit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLavishly illustrated with many of the most breathtaking and enduring artworks ever created, Grovier casts fresh light on these famous works by daring to isolate a single, often overlooked detail responsible for its greatness and power to move.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelly Grovier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0500295565\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500295564\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.37h x 6.30w x 1.02d","brand":"Kelly Grovier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44047669723391,"sku":"9780500295564","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7f24bc4e-0610-411d-ac67-e63499b95be1.jpg?v=1684991542","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-new-way-of-seeing-kelly-grovier-9780500295564","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
