Mexican Muralists in California: A Guide Book

Description: Mexican Muralists in California: A Guide Book Mexican Muralists in California is an idiosyncratic guide book. It's author, Don Allen Shorts, has written numerous self-published books on California and Mexican art. You can imagine Mr. Shorts doing the very things he writes about in this guide. It is almost like getting travel tips over lunch from a good friend. The book is organized geographically. Mr. Shorts identifies the location of murals by Mexican artists within a region and then provides specific information about each location. He provides not only details about assessing the art and the art itself, but also suggestions on places to eat and stay. With an eye for historical architecture, he will also points important Californian buildings near the mural site. An excerpt from the book - One day, when driving through San Francisco, I was very surprised when I spotted a traditional Home Savings and Loan building. I didn't expect to see one as I thought these banks were a purely Southern California phenomenon. Excitedly,m I stopped my car hoping that there might some of Millard Sheet's work on the outside and perhaps also on the inside. I wasn't disappointed. San Francisco has two examples of some of his best work. There were mosaic murals on the front of the building. I walked inside an found it to be spectacular. There is a large painted Sheet's mural inside that goes around the entire interior of the building. It tells the history of San Francisco and is on of Millard Sheets' best. Illinois sales tax added to Illinois orders. ISBN Format Paperback Author Don Shorts Publisher The Old California Press, 2009 Pages 207 Price Guide None Guarantee/Returns No need for insurance.
