Riassunto
This Is America: Re-Viewing the Art of the United States is a new, brief text on the history of art in the United States from the Colonial era to the present. Broadening the story of American art, the text offers expanded coverage of a wide range of media (including craft, film, and fashion) and balanced representation of women artists and artists of color. Accessible to students with no background in art history, This Is America offers links between recent works of art and the rich cultural history of each major era with succinct and illuminating analysis of key contemporary works in "Contemporary Connections" boxes.
This Is America is also accompanied by Practice Art History, a cutting-edge digital resource environment created to help students build skills of visual literacy and analysis. Visit www.oup.com/he/watson-navaroli1e to access the full suite of student and instructor resources.
