Publisher Description
An Artist A Day is not your father’s art book. It is the first almanac to remember artists’ lives and achievements. Each day of the year (including Sadie Hawkins’ Day!) is dedicated to a different artist on his or her birthday. A brief, entertaining essay describes the essential aspects of each artist’s life — exposing character traits or events that were exhilarating or deeply tragic. And each essay is illustrated with a representative image of that artist’s work. Here is an art book that is meant to be enjoyed when a reader discovers little known facts. At the same time it upholds high scholarly standards.
