A propos de cet article

MODERN ART MAKING CHOICES GALASSI STORR & UMLAND MOMA 2000 HARD COVER DJ. Quoting from the flap of the dust jacket gives some inkling of what this book….not just an exhibition catalog…is all about-to wit: Modern art is not one thing but many. Making Choices celebrates this spirited diversity by focusing on four particular years 1929-1939-1948 & 1955. For each year the authors have selected a generous variety of works from the collection of the Museum of Modern Art New York. These complex cross-sections evoke the range of opportunities-challenges and choices faced by artists in all mediums during a period of great social and political turmoil and spirited artistic debate. So, I am pleased to offer: Making Choices-1929-1939-1948 & 1955 by Peter Galassi, Robert Storr & Anne Umland. This large hard cover book (9 ¾ x 12 ¼ inches 348 pages) was published by the Museum of Modern Art in New York dated 2000 and I believe a First Edition. It is bound in blue gray cloth boards with embossed titles on the cover and red gilt titles on the spine; it is protected by a printed paper dust jacket. As the flap of the dust jacket also notes there are 306 illustrations including 162 in color and 144 in duotone. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The dust jacket shows some light edge wear particularly at the bottom of the spine. The hard covers are pristine. Inside a former owner has left his embossed imprint on the front endpaper but that is the only mark I found in the book. The interior pages and plates are clean and bright throughout. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.
