First published in 1967, this title considers the idea of the ‘well-made play’ in the context of how and why it has been devalued and how far, in allowing it to be devalued, we have lost sight of certain important elements of the theatre. The focus of the book is largely on the development of British theatre and those who have been instrumental to it. This is an indispensable introduction for any student with an interest in the history and development of the British theatre.

(Impressions of France traces the development of the Frenc...)
Impressions of France traces the development of the French painted landscape from1860 to 1890, a period of dramatic artistic evolution. Taking as his context the Paris Salons - "the central forum for the display of contemporary art in Paris, and the focus for discussions of the state of modern art" - John House explains how the Impressionist landscapes exhibited there both reflected, and forever changed, the cultural tastes of the age.

(Bill Jacklin (b.1943) is one of the most exciting and ind...)
Bill Jacklin (b.1943) is one of the most exciting and individual artists of the generation that first came to prominence in the 1960s. From the start, he seemed destined to swim against the stream. In an era of Pop Art he chose to be an abstract artist, producing intricate patterns of grids and dots. When he had achieved success in this style, he returned to a revolutionary type of realistic representation. He was - and still is - an obsessed and obsessive painter, driven by his own compulsion to pursue an untrodden path. This book provides the definitive mid-career survey of this British-American artist, as it deconstructs with thorough analytical depth the generation, progression and current state of Jacklin's artistic achievements; the significance of his oeuvre as a whole; and the underlying significance for his work of his personal outlook on life. This is a beautiful edition in itself, displaying innovative design, strong visual impact and a delicate yet distinctive aestheticism - which altogether substantiate the artistic sensitivity of Jacklin himself.

( Popular Music on Screen examines the relationship betwe...)
Popular Music on Screen examines the relationship between popular music and the screen, from the origins of the Hollywood musical to contemporary developments in music television and video. Through detailed examination of films, television programs and popular music, together with analysis of the economic, technological and cultural determinants of their production and consumption, the book argues that popular music has been increasingly influenced by its visual economy. Though engaging with the debates that surround postmodernism, the book suggests that what most characterizes the relationship between popular music and the screen is a strong sense of continuity, expressed through institutional structures, representational strategies and the ideology of "entertainment."

( John Rewald, the internationally acclaimed Cezanne scho...)
John Rewald, the internationally acclaimed Cezanne scholar, presents here for the first time a full account of how the artist's reputation and influence became established in America between 1891 and 1921, and of how some of the world's largest collections of Cezanne's works were formed in the United States. Recounted in Rewald's characteristically urbane and masterly style, this is the fascinating story of enthusiastic young American artists who took up Cezanne's cause after they discovered him in Paris. It is also the story of the discerning early American collectors of his work--Leo and Gertrude Stein, the Havemeyers and John Quinn, among others--many of whom made their first purchases from Cezanne's wily dealer Vollard or from the dealer Alfred Stieglitz in America, and of the beginning of the famous collection of Dr. Albert C. Barnes. Rewald discusses the exhibitions at which Cezanne's works were first shown and describes the outraged reactions of all but a few of the American critics. Several chapters are devoted to the important Armory Show of 1913. Throughout the text runs a compelling narrative in which all the actors revolve around the absent protagonist Cezanne. Each chapter is copiously illustrated, not only with Cezanne's works but also with portraits of collectors and critics and with previously unpublished pages from diaries, dealers' ledgers, and Cezanne's own correspondence.

(The "Art Dealers is the engrossing story of the whole art...)
The "Art Dealers is the engrossing story of the whole art market, from the small local"antique shop"which is not match more then a junk shop, right up to the fashionable commercial galleries and the great international salerooms - Sotheby's, Parke-Bernet, Christie's, Hotel Drouot and others.It tells how sales are made, how promotion is handled and takes a backward look at changes in taste as well as fluctuations in prices during the last one hundred and fifty years. The picture would not be complete without a glimpse of the shady side of the business - the fakes,forgeries and thefts - and some famous recent cases are recounted.But this is only one facet of the subject and actually the whole story of the busy art world is on a high level of excitement and interest. Art today can be a status symbol,a marketable commodity and a basis for tax deductions; owning an important example can give aesthetic pleasure but more often it is valued as a convenience. Dealing on all levels has come to be big business, something to be reckoned with not only by buyers and sellers but by every informed reader.
