Summary: Art essay for beginners
Review: My major study is theory of art. Herbert Read's [The meaning of Art] is about art, aesthetics, art institiution, and principle conceptions like 'Golden section', 'Pattern', 'Form', 'Empathy', and 'Content' and so on. And this book very small size and including picture. For that contents, this book is good for beginners but not fit to major students, so to speak, students majoring art history. Read is also famous for art theory educator in the world. the writing is so easy to understand for that reason. Half of contents composed of simple explanation of art history and Big artists like Van Gogh, Picasso, Kandinsky. If you believe you're layman concerned to art, Choose this title and Recognize 'the meaning of Art'
