Art, Artists & Society - G. Pelles
Art, Artists & Society explores the origins of modern painting and the dilemma of the “alienated” artist and his public in the creation and enjoyment of art. Comparing the works and personalities of English and French painters—David, Ingres, Delacroix, Géricault, Turner, Constable, Blake, Fuseli, and many others—over a century of profound social upheaval, the author discusses the changes and variations in art styles which accompanied art’s dissociation from traditional institutions and standards.
Venturing into the virtually uncharted territory of the social psychology of art, Geraldine Pelles shows that painting is not necessarily self-expression or mirror of its environment. Her provocative examination of the development of art styles against their social background erodes the myths of the artist versus society, Bohemian versus bourgeois, Romantic versus Neoclassic. Thus the author shows that changes in the themes and forms of art emerge from a complex and subtle interplay between the artist, his public, and art itself.
