Description:
Hughes begins where American art began -- with the Indians and first Spanish invaders in the Southwest. He ends with today. And in between, in nine chapters crackling with wit and intelligence and sympathy, he tells the amazing story of how public taste; a landscape of unparalleled variety and richness; a culture with roots stretching into dozens of foreign lands; and above all a gallery of brilliant and idiosyncratic painters, sculptors, and architects, created one of the greatest artistic traditions the world has ever known. Anecdotes, biographies, critical commentaries, the sweep of social history -- all these make up American Visions, surely one of the best books ever written on art -- or on America.
