Une approche très ludique de l'Art, avec un texte plein d'humour.
Ah ça alors, il y a un sacré mélange dans ce livre !
Regarde à quoi ressemble cette grande Dame avec cette armure, ou bien Louis XV avec un collier de perles.
Dans ce livre, vous pouvez mélanger dans tous les sens les portraits peints par de grands peintres. Tordre à l'infini ces portraits, peints par Picasso ou... Dürer, est à la fois une approche amusante de l'art, et un plaisir renouvelé.
This colorful, lively, and endlessly entertaining book for children looks at artistic illusion showing that art history is rife with tricksters.
If seeing is believing, then artists might be the biggest liars of all. Painters, sculptors, and photographers often try to convince their audiences that the paint is wet; the fruit is real; the window is open; the figure's eyes are following you around the room. This fun and informative book takes young readers on a thematic tour of art as illusion. From the Parthenon through examples from nearly every major movement and culture, vibrant works of art are revealed to contain visual tricks, puns, hidden clues and just plain deceit. Seurat's pointillism, da Vinci's mysterious Mona Lisa, Magritte's playful paintings-within-paintings, and Duane Hanson's eerily realistic statues are all explored in detail to discuss the techniques, styles, use of perspective and composition that implore us to look at them again and again. Filled with ideas for do-ityourself optical projects, each chapter focuses on a theme such as color, hidden pictures, and surrealism. Designed with the curious eye in mind, this book will introduce young readers to beguiling works of art with fresh insight and a new way of appreciating some of the world's most important works of art.
