solitude sunday

solitude sunday at the whimsey project.  our day to spend time with a book; especially those that have been sitting on the shelf waiting to be read.

american vision: the epic history of art in america by robert hughes has been completed! the final discussion was about the art of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. this means andy warhol and other moderists. the art of the times were in the schools of abstract expressionism, abstract, performance, minimalism, earth art and constructivism.  during the 1980s, art became a commodity that the world had never before experienced.  pieces were selling for millions and millions of dollars, which profoundly changed the way art was acquired.  and now, it's time to begin another book!
