Accompanying a major reinstallation of the illustrious permanent collection, this volume gathers fifty “spotlight” essays exploring individual works from the thirteenth to the twenty-first century.\u003cp\u003eIlluminating both famous and lesser known works by a range of artists—from Dürer to Rembrandt, Pollock to de Kooning—this book departs from conventional “masterpieces” or period approaches to present a sampling of ongoing and new research from a variety of scholarly voices. Approximately forty contributors offer perspectives on works of their own choosing from the museum’s collection, which has been growing since 1881. More than a catalog, this book is a vivid celebration of the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum’s storied history of collecting and scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47051703845104,"sku":"9780936316420","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780936316420_p0.jpg?v=1763862536","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780936316420","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
