Enduring Creation Art, Pain, and Fortitude

"Spivey writes with conviction both about art and about human experience and with an obvious pleasure in language. The opening account of a train trip to the Auschwitz Museum sets the tone for what is always, explicitly or implicitly, more than merely another art historical account."--David B. Morris, author ofCulture of Pain "A general tour de force of erudition. [T]he book is very well-written [and] accessible to the general reader."--Alexander Nemerov, author ofThe Body of Raphaelle Peale "The prose is lively and the insights thought-provoking. There is also an engaging, at times moving, personal touch to the book. [I]t will appeal to a wide audience of specialists and nonspecialists alike."--Buchanan Sharp, Department of History, University of California, Santa CruzSpivey, Nigel is the author of 'Enduring Creation Art, Pain, and Fortitude' with ISBN 9780520230224 and ISBN 0520230221.
