The Art of Freedom: How Artists See America

32 pp. | Millbrook | March, 2008 | Library ISBN 978-0-8225-7508-5 $25.26
(3) K-3 Raczka mines the works of eighteen artists for notions of America's identity. The text uses contrasts in language ("America is natural wonders / America is man-made marvels") and art styles (paintings, photographs, sculptures) to effectively convey a theme that America is heterogeneous in history, thinking, and style. Thumbnails and information about the works are appended.
