Lives of the Artists: Masterpieces, Messes (and What the Neighbors Thought) Tapa blanda - 2014

de Kathleen Krull; Kathryn Hewitt (Illustrator)

An entertaining and informative account of the idiosyncrasies—sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic—of twenty famous artists.


Resumen

"Fresh, spirited, and unconventional."—Kirkus Reviews

 

Most people can name some famous artists and recognize their best-known works. But what's behind all that painting, drawing, and sculpting? What was Leonardo da Vinci's snack of choice while he painted Mona Lisa’s mysterious smile? Why did Georgia O'Keeffe find bones so appealing? Who called Diego Rivera "Frog-Face"? And what is it about artists that makes both their work and their lives so fascinating—to themselves, to their curious neighbors, and to all of us? This book presents the humor and the tragedy in twenty artists' lives as no biography has done before.

Reseñas en medios

"Fresh, spirited, and unconventional."—Kirkus Reviews
 
"A lively, entertaining presentation."—Booklist
 
"Kids will enjoy this brush with greatness."—Bulletin
 
"Krull's brief biographies provide basic facts as well as intriguing details. The subjects chosen range from the famous (Michelangelo Buonarroti) to the infamous (Andy Warhol) to the less well known. Hewitt's caricaturelike illustrations reflect and extend the lively text."—Horn Book
