A journey through art
Aaron Rosen
- Reading
- Pause around art in place and time and ask how the book presents it.
- Themes
- Art in place and time: The book links artworks and artefacts with the places and cultures around them, moving chronologically across locations around the world. Its structure presents art through historical and cultural context, rather than as a sequence of movements or isolated masterpieces.
- Worth knowing
- Coverage is selective: some major art movements are passed over, and a few famous objects are mentioned without pictures. A child seeking close study of individual works may want more detail.
