The Philosophy of Modern Art is a book written by Herbert Read, a British poet, art historian, and critic. The book was first published in 1952 and has since become a seminal work in the field of modern art philosophy. In this book, Read explores the relationship between art and society, arguing that modern art is a reflection of the social and cultural changes of the 20th century. He delves into the philosophical foundations of modern art, examining the theories and ideas that have influenced its development. Read also discusses the different movements and styles of modern art, including Cubism, Futurism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism. He analyzes the works of prominent artists such as Picasso, Matisse, and Mondrian, and explains how their art reflects the philosophical ideas of their time. Throughout the book, Read emphasizes the importance of individual creativity and the artist's role in society. He argues that modern art is a means of expressing the human experience and that it has the power to transform society. Overall, The Philosophy of Modern Art is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the philosophical foundations of modern art. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and development of modern art and its relationship to society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
