Creation in the Plastic Arts

Mehr zum Buch

Written between 1907 and 1913, and first published in Prague in 1923, this book by one of the founders of abstraction is a major contribution to 20th-century art theory. It is divided into three parts: a general overview of the history of art, based on the concern for forms; an analysis of the language of art and its meaning; and speculative arguments on what makes up a creative individual.
