Produktbeschreibung

Unprecedented in size and scope, this special issue of Western Passages celebrates the full range of the western American art holdings at the Denver Art Museum. Published to mark the tenth anniversary of the museum's Petrie Institute of Western American Art, Elevating Western American Art: Developing an Institute in the Cultural Capital of the Rockies includes thirty essays by art historians from across the United States and Canada as well as a comprehensive history of the growth of Denver's impressive collection of art of the American West. This highly collectible book--an essential addition to any art library--is a testament to the artists whose work it so handsomely portrays and to the many benefactors, staff, and supporters, over a period of more than a hundred years, who have made it possible for western American art to find a home at the Denver Art Museum.
