Abstract:

In this major survey of the arts of Africa, Western and Central Asia, India, Southeast Asia, China, Korea, Japan, the Pacific, and the Americas, author Michael Kampen-O'Riley presents the vast range of arts that lie outside of the Western tradition. Within a predominantly geographic and chronological framework, he explores the arts of these areas from pre-history to present day. The first dedicated survey of "non-Western" art, Art Beyond the West is amply illustrated and accessibly written. Upon completing this book, readers will be able to: To recognize regional and period styles. To understand styles in terms of the basic ideals around which they were created. See the connection between idea and form.
