Me, According to the History of Art
A fast-paced romp through the history of western painting with one of New Zealandâs best-known painters
Throughout his long career, New Zealand painter Dick Frizzell has often gone way out on a limb to see where it would take him. From his early Pop art-influenced approach to his experiments with landscape and the contested area of appropriation, heâs always been brave. Now, he takes on the history of art, starting right back at cave art to discover the key threads of Western art that sit in his DNA as a painter in the twenty-first century.
The approach is essential Frizzell: bring everyone along for the ride. Itâs a fun romp, but despite the humour, it sits on a bedrock of serious scholarship and reverence for the painters of the past. And thereâs one thing that makes this book different from any other: all the reproductions of significant paintings, from Rubens and Tintoretto to Cezanne and Lichtenstein, are by Frizzell himself, heroically painted over a twelve-month period.
is the art history education youâve been missing. Painting tips included.
