ART

Clive Bell (1881-1964), an English art critic, was best known for promoting his theory of formalism. He was a philosopher who defended abstract art and was a member of the Bloomsbury School.
In this book the noted British art critic, Clive Bell, has tried to develop the complete theory of visual art. He has advanced a hypothesis by reference to which the history of art from palaeolithic days to the present becomes intelligible. Anyone who is curious to discover why we call a Persian carpet or a fresco by Piero della Francesco a work of art, will find an answer here.
