The Menils are best known for their very urbane collection of Surrealism (Magritte on cover) as well as their patronage of Earthworks and Post-Minimalism, but this book shows that their appetite for art is very broad indeed. Texas oil money buys a whole bunch of art. *** "The Menil Collection: A selection from the Paleolithic to the Modern Era presents works of art from the extraordinary private collection of Dominique and John de Menil, which was assembled over the last forty years. This book, and the new museum built to house the collection in Houston, Texas, for the first time make available to the public the content of The Menil Collection. The nearly 250 works shown here in color reproductions are, of couse, only a fraction of the collection's 10,000 items that include painting, drawings, prints and photographs, rare books, sculpture, and precious objects." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: 22 critical essays . . . art of ancient cultures; Medieval and Byzantine art; European painting, sixteenth-eighteeneth century; Image of the Black in Western art; Colonial art in the New World; Art of the tribal cultures; Twentieth Century art.
