{"product_id":"master-pieces-the-curators-game","title":"Master Pieces: The Curator's Game","description":"A stunning visual game that helps readers enjoy, appreciate, and identify great works of art. As Director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art for a decade, Thomas Hoving brought art to a new level of public awareness by pioneering such blockbuster shows as the King Tut exhibit. Early in his career, Hoving was introduced to the \"curator's game.\" Each week, he and his contemporaries met to examine details of larger museum masterpieces. Whoever correctly identified the detail in context won free coffee: the losers paid. In an imaginative adaptation of this exercise, Hoving introduces us to the challenge and the fun of identifying art, and to the rewards of familiarity with the great works. A section of paintings accompanied by brief essays introduces a range of artists, themes, techniques, and styles, while progressively demanding \"clues\" are provided to help identify visual details in context. No experience is necessary to play this game. Readers at all levels will discover the fun of identifying and remembering great art. 250 color illustrations\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0393328384\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0393328384.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hoving, Thomas|Learson, Kate|Stein, Lori\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
