Paperback. Condition: NEW. 399 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour); 30 cm. Published on the occasion of an exhibition at the de Young Museum, San Francisco, from October 17, 2015 to January 10, 2016. BRAND NEW. A fine copy. Still in publisher's shrinkwrap. OVERSIZE! Additional shipping charges may be requested for internationa…l & priority orders. A large-format coffee-table book. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "Timed with the centennial of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition (PPIE) of 1915, Jewel City presents a large and representative selection of artworks from the fair, emphasizing the variety of paintings, sculptures, photographs, and prints that greeted attendees. It is unique in its focus on the works of art that were scattered among the venues of the exposition--the most comprehensive art exhibition ever shown on the West Coast. Notably, the PPIE included the first American presentations of Italian Futurism, Austrian Expressionism, and Hungarian avant-garde painting, and there were also major displays of paintings by prominent Americans, especially those working in the Impressionist style. This lavishly illustrated catalogue features works by masters such as Winslow Homer, John Singer Sargent, Claude Monet, Paul C zanne, Robert Henri, Edward Weston, Imogen Cunningham, Edvard Munch, Oskar Kokoschka, Umberto Boccioni, and many more. The volume also explores the PPIE's distinctive murals program, developments in the art of printmaking, and the legacy of the French Pavilion, which hosted an abundance of works by Auguste Rodin and inspired the founding and architecture of the Legion of Honor museum in San Francisco. A rich and fascinating study of a critical moment in American and European art history, Jewel City is indispensable for understanding both the United States' and California's role in the reception of modernism as well as the region's historical place on the international art stage." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Introduction: 'A beautiful jewel set in the turquoise of the sea', by James A.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. Yale University Press, 2018. Hardcover in pictorial dust jacket. First Edition. 243 pages with numerous photographic images and illustrations throughout.A fresh look at a bold and dynamic 20th-century American art styleCharacterized by highly structured, geo…metric compositions with smooth surfaces, linear qualities, and lucid forms, Precisionism fully emerged after World War I and flourished in the 1920s and 1930s. This insightful publication, featuring more than 100 masterworks by artists such as Charles Sheeler, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Charles Demuth, sheds new light on the Precisionist aesthetic and the intellectual concerns, excitement, tensions, and ambivalences about industrialization that helped develop this important strand of early American modernism.Essays explore the origins of the style--which reconciled realism with abstraction and adapted European art movements like Purism, Cubism, and Futurism to American subject matter--as well as its relationship to photography, and the ways in which it reflected the economic and social changes brought about by industrialization and technology in the post-World War I world. BOOK CONDITION: Fine; a solid, tight, clean copy in a Fine dust jacket.
