part I and II: 2 Volumes

A completely in-depth examination of post-war Belgian art movements, these volumes runs the spectrum from The Rules of Art to other such chapters as Lyrical Abstraction, Assemblage, and Art as Social Criticism. Intriguing commentaries by author Willem Elias provide thorough and analytical observations. Accompanied by handsomely featured illustrations, both catalogues will appeal to a cross section of readers interested in contemporary art with an eye to how Belgian art since 1945 corresponds to the international art scene. A comprehensive source to frequently refer to, Aspects of Belgian Art after 1945, will undoubtedly be a valuable addition to both art connoisseurs and students alike. SELLING POINTS: ?This extensive resource with its accompanying colour plates highlights the role of post-war Belgian art movements in an international art framework ?A well-rounded, academic discussion of particular interest to contemporary art enthusiasts ILLUSTRATIONS: 348 colour
