The Best of Norman Rockwell : A Celebration of 100 Years

Many of the pieces come from the family's private collection. |

Unknown Terrain : The Landscapes of Andrew Wyeth by Beth Venn, Adam D. Weinberg, Andrew Wyeth, Michael G. Kammen. Hardcover, 240 pages. This book makes an irresistible case for ignoring both Wyeth's sentimental champions and his cynical detractors. It's easy to understand either pole of opinion about this very American painter, but harder to get to the essence of what makes him excite such vehemence. In the end, it may simply be that he is very, very good, and like all good painters, a little too complicated for most critics. |
