Gardner's Art Through The Ages
Gardner's Art Through the Ages is an American textbook on the history of art, with the 2004 edition by Fred S. Kleiner and Christin J. Mamiya. The 2001 edition was awarded both a McGuffey honour for longevity[1] and the "Texty" Award for current editions[2] by the Text and Academic Authors Association. No other volume has received both awards in the same year.
The get-go edition published in 1926 was written past Helen Gardner. It, similar all following editions, was organized chronologically offset with "The Birth of Art" in the Upper Paleolithic and progressing in a mainly chronological sequence to the contemporary menstruation.
Gardner'southward initial edition was ahead of its time in that along with the Western canon of European art, information technology examined the art of India, Ancient America, China, and Japan. This approach was maintained for the first three editions that were all edited by Helen Gardner. The second edition was published in 1936 and the third came out in 1948, a year after Gardner died. In 1959, the 4th edition was published under the editorship of Sumner McK. Crosby by the Section of the History of Art at Yale University. This edition introduced readers to a new term "not-European art." It too moved away from Gardner'due south involvement in drawing comparisons between art from different parts of the world. In the Preface, Crosby states:
- Although Miss Gardner's arrangement of the Tertiary Edition provided many opportunities for interesting comparisons and fabricated it possible to written report in adjacent chapters what was occurring in unlike parts of the world during more or less the aforementioned historic periods, this system often obscured the intrinsic qualities and especially the evolution of the unlike styles. As our table of contents indicates, we have presented the arts of dissimilar periods and countries in a more normal order. The division into Aboriginal, European, Not-European, and Modern Fine art and the group by periods and countries under these divisions will, we believe, provide a clear and coherent chronological account of the history of fine art throughout the world.
Sumner's arrangement continues to be used in editions of Gardner's. The book has remained a required text for introductory classes in art history for American students into the 21st century.[3] [four]
