An art book about colors and art, ranging from cave drawing to minimal art, for children, how fun is that? For 15.99 Ted van Lieshout shows us what colours are, what they (can) do to you and how colours can work together beautifully.
He tells us about how art originated and how it has developed over the centuries. A wonderful book that our young artists and museum visitors enjoy reading. It is very nicely written and there is a lot to look at!
Above are some illustrations from the book from a bygone era. It is nice that attention is paid to different forms and techniques of art and how these works have been appreciated over time and are often or still trendy today. Sadly this book is not translated into English.
