his is a wonderful true story about one family's life as they
grew up and grew old. It was filled with love, laughter, trials,
and the challenges that life gives.
The biggest challenge came when she found herself with both
parents in various stages of dementia. At times she felt helpless,
but also knew that it was up to her to attempt to fulfill their
needs, wants and desires.
Time moved on and her father passed away, leaving her with her
mom to care for. What would she do? What did she do? Most
important, what will you do?
Delightfully original, this book establishes Cubism's intrinsic
connection to the traditional art of pictorial illusion The age-old
artistic tradition of illusionistic realism known as trompe l'oeil
("deceive the eye") beguiles us with visual tricks and confounds
our perception of reality and fiction. Presenting a radically new
take on Cubism, this book shows how Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque,
and Juan Gris parodied classic trompe l'oeil motifs and devices
while inventing playful, original ways of challenging the viewer's
perception. Insightful, handsomely illustrated essays explore
connections between the Cubists and the trompe l'oeil artists of
earlier centuries with whom they engaged in creative one-upmanship.
Essays discuss the previously unstudied trompe l'oeil iconography
within Cubist still lifes; the history of the trompe l'oeil genre
and its changing status over the centuries; the materials and
processes used in Gris's collages; Braque's grounding in trompe
l'oeil interior decoration techniques; and more. Over one hundred
illustrated works juxtapose Cubist paintings, drawings, and
collages with related compositions by the old masters. This
handsome volume, which reveals the surprising origins of some of
Cubism's most recognized motifs, is essential reading for anyone
interested in the development of modern art.
