Why a Painting Is Like a Pizza

"The first time she made a pizza from scratch, Nancy G. Heller made the observation that led her to write this entertaining guide to contemporary art. Comparing modern art not only to pizzas but also to traditional and children's art, Heller shows us how to use the analytical tools developed in everyday life to understand and enjoy almost any painting, sculpture, or installation.". "This book is for anyone who agrees with art critic Clement Greenberg that "all profoundly original art looks ugly at first." It's also for anyone who disagrees. It is for anyone who wants to get more out of a museum or gallery visit and would like to be able to say something more than just "yes" or "no" when asked if they like an artist's work."--BOOK JACKET.
