Tile Club and the Aesthetic Movement in America
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Harry N Abrams Inc
- Publish date: 10/01/1999
Description:
The Tile Club was a group of 31 notable New York painters, sculptors, and architects -- including Winslow Homer, William Merritt Chase, John H. Twachtman, Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and Stanford White -- who met together between 1877 and 1887. Inspired by William Morris and the English Arts and Crafts movement, the club created hand-painted ceramic tiles and promoted the decorative arts. But it also championed American art in general -- and did much to popularize plein air painting and the Impressionist style.
Expand description
Published in conjunction with an exhibition opening in the Museums at Stony Brook on Long Island, this beautifully designed book -- the first ever on the Tile Club -- showcases 70 of the club members' tiles and other works and assesses the club's far-reaching influence on art.
