- Book Synopsis
- 'Finally! Art without terror!' PHOEBE WALLER-BRIDGE 'Puts art in our lives, our homes, our hearts' RICHARD CURTIS 'A breath of fresh air' PHILIPPA PERRY 'Read it, enjoy it and be liberated' DAILY MIRROR What is art, where do I find it, and once I'm in front of it, what am I supposed to think about it? Kate Bryan is a self-confessed art addict who has worked with art for over twenty years. But before she studied art history at university, she'd been into a gallery just twice in her life and had no idea she was entering an elitist world. Now, she's on a mission to help everybody come to art. Like playing or listening to music, or cooking and eating great food, reading or watching films, making art or looking at other people's deserves to be an enriching part of all our lives. So here, in HOW TO ART, is a nifty way to take art on your own terms. From where it is to what it is, to tips on how to actually enjoy really famous artworks like the Mona Lisa, to how to own art and make art at home, through to vital advice for making a career as an artist and even how to make your dog more cultural, How to Art gives art to everyone, and makes it fun. Laced throughout with original artworks by the very down-to-earth artist David Shrigley 'Like food, art has that wonderful ability to bring us joy. Kate is the perfect expert to help us all develop a more meaningful relationship with art.' JAMIE OLIVER 'Joyous and liberating ... if art slightly scares you, or if you've ever stood in front of a painting feeling gauche and tongue-tied, you're going to love it.' INDIA KNIGHT 'The definitive "how to" guide to not being intimidated by the world of art and artists. It brings joy, which is a powerful thing.' MARIA BALSHAW, DIRECTOR OF TATE
