Why Cats Paint: A Theory of Feline Aesthetics

Rating:
Summary: The psychology and aesthetics of feline art
Review: Why Cats Paints is a solemn, well-researched study of feline aesthetics - witness the extensive photos of the feline artists and their works. Er, well as least it is a very humorous, tongue-in-cheek study of feline aesthetics that will have any artist or cat lover rolling in laughter.

Despite the oil painting cat of the front cover, not all the art media is that chosen by humans - witness the 1993 work titled "How Now" where the media is scratched date post or the 1990 work "Passing Through" on an appropriated couch. An enjoyable romp through art commentary with excellent text and photos.
