520 "Most people outside of the art world view art as
something that is foreign to their experiences and
everyday lives. A People's Art History of the United
States places art history squarely in the rough-and-tumble
of politics, social struggles, and the fight for justice
from the colonial era through the present day. Author and
radical artist Nicolas Lampert combines historical sweep
with detailed examinations of individual artists and works
in a politically charged narrative that spans the conquest
of the Americas, the American Revolution, slavery and
abolition, western expansion, the suffragette movement and
feminism, civil rights movements, environmental movements,
LGBT movements, antiglobalization movements, contemporary
antiwar movements, and beyond. A People's Art History of
the United States introduces us to key works of American
radical art alongside dramatic retellings of the histories
that inspired them. Stylishly illustrated with over two
hundred images, this book is nothing less than an
alternative education for anyone interested in the
powerful role that art plays in our society."--|cProvided
