{"product_id":"contemporary-art-al-miner-9780878468164","title":"Contemporary Art: Mfa Highlights","description":"Contemporary art is a vast and complex field representing artists, ideas and trends from every imaginable cultural and geographical background. This book introduces the art of our times by taking the reader through a tour of some 70 examples from the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Thematic chapters present artistic categories, concepts and propositions that offer a path toward understanding the different subjects, forms, styles, purposes and techniques of contemporary art. Some, such as portraiture, are long-standing notions in the history of art; others, such as site appropriation, raise provocative questions and may be less immediately obvious. But it is the works themselves--brilliantly conceived by some of the most creative minds of our times--that make the case for embracing contemporary art in all its diversity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Al Miner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0878468161\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780878468164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e MFA Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/26\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 7.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Al Miner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926737551615,"sku":"9780878468164","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_55f157b7-1736-4a9b-b466-239e0602d665.jpg?v=1681084728","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/contemporary-art-al-miner-9780878468164","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
