Default America's Art - New Book and Web Site

Dear Art Conversation Visitors,

Smithsonian American Art Museum has put out a new book and companion web site - America's Art:
http://americanart.si.edu/americas_art

This was posted in Scout Report (copyright 2006)

14. America's Art
http://americanart.si.edu/americas_art

This companion Web site to a new book of the same title from the Smithsonian
American Art Museum (SAAM) will serve many readers as well as the book
itself. While the web site lacks the large-size, printed reproductions of
artwork and introductory texts of the book, it never the less provides
reasonable screen resolution images of all of the 225 works reproduced in
the book. The web site is organized into 16 chapters, starting with "From
Distant Shores", which contains artwork documenting the immigrant
experience, and ending with "Toward the Millennium", which is artwork
created in the last 20 years of the Twentieth Century. .....[DS]
---------------------------
Chapters are organized by theme - somewhat in chronological order.
