Abstract art

Elger, Dietmar. (Author). Grosenick, Uta, (editor.).

Summary: A survey of abstract art and its influences on the 20th century art scene. "This essential introduction spans the international breadth, conceptual depth, and seismic impact of abstract art with a thorough survey not only of the big names such as Picasso, Klee, Kline, Rothko, and Pollock, but also lesser-known figures who made equally significant contributions, including Antoni Tàpies, K. O. Götz, Ad Reinhardt, and Sophie Taeuber-Arp." - Publisher.
