Art: Become Confident Fast

By Aron Kuehnemann

This book is for people who appreciate art but aren't part of the "art world," who sense that art is closely tied with humankind's uniqueness, and yet still might find themselves bored, impatient, or feeling like they can get more from museums, galleries and other art experiences. Becoming confident fast means two things:1. Establishing your own view about the big questions: What is art? Why does art matter? Why do artists address the topics they choose?2. Having a practical method to quickly diagnose even the most obscure medieval or contemporary artworks.For three years, Aron Kuehnemann has shared original artworks with members of a San Francisco art network, The Art Circuit. Early on, he realized that most people, himself certainly included, felt less comfortable with visual art than other cultural pursuits, such as music, TV, movies, or books. He was puzzled by the large gap between the ease of looking at everyday images and the struggle of interpreting art images. He found books that addressed art history or formal theory, but nothing meant to quickly survey the key topics in visual art and help people better enjoy those moments. This book is an attempt to start those conversations.
